ROASTED CARROT SALAD WITH ARUGULA AND POMEGRANATE



Roasted Carrot Salad With Arugula and Pomegranate image

This composed, bright salad of roasted carrots, thinly sliced fennel and arugula gains a fruity depth from a splash of pomegranate molasses in the dressing. You can find pomegranate molasses in Middle Eastern groceries and specialty food shops, and it's worth seeking out for its complex, sweet-tart acidity. Once opened, it will last for years in your pantry. This salad makes a delightful side dish or light main course, especially if you include the optional toasted walnuts or pita chips, which add a satisfying crunch. If you can find multicolored carrots, this already striking salad becomes even prettier.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch lengths (halve them if carrots are large)
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper, more to taste
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses
1/2 tablespoon fresh lemon juice, more to taste
1 garlic clove, finely grated or minced
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
3 ounces baby arugula (about 3 cups)
1 fennel bulb, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh dill fronds or mint leaves
Pomegranate seeds, as needed
Yogurt, for serving (optional)
Toasted walnuts or crumbled pita chips, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Toss carrots with salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons oil on a rimmed baking sheet, and bake until edges are caramelized and carrots are tender, 28 to 33 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately toss with cumin. Let cool for a few minutes while you make the dressing. Carrots should be slightly warm but not hot when tossed with the greens.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together pomegranate molasses, lemon juice, garlic, mustard and large pinch of salt and pepper. Taste and adjust lemon juice and seasonings if necessary. Whisk in remaining 1/4 cup oil until emulsified.
  • Stir carrots into dressing, then gently toss with arugula, fennel and dill or mint. Serve immediately, drizzled with more olive oil and topped with pomegranate seeds, and yogurt and nuts or pita chips if using.

ARUGULA AND CARROT SALAD WITH WALNUTS AND CHEESE



Arugula and Carrot Salad With Walnuts and Cheese image

The best type of arugula for this salad is the feathery type called wild arugula. I love the contrast of flavors here - peppery arugula alongside sweet carrots and a nutty dressing.

Provided by Ina Garten

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings for lunch, 6 servings as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 pounds carrots, preferably with leafy tops
Good olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup pure Grade A maple syrup
2/3 cup dried cranberries
2/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (2 oranges)
3 tablespoons sherry wine vinegar
2 garlic cloves, grated on a Microplane
6 ounces baby arugula
6 ounces goat cheese, such as Montrachet, medium-diced
2/3 cup roasted, salted Marcona almonds

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Trim and scrub the carrots. If the carrots are more than 1 inch in diameter, cut them in half lengthwise. Cut the carrots in large diagonal slices 1 inch wide × 2 inches long (they will shrink when they roast) and place in a medium bowl with 1/4 cup of olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Toss well and transfer to two sheet pans. (If you use just one, they¿ll steam instead of roasting.) Roast for 20 minutes, tossing once, until the carrots are tender. Transfer all the carrots to one of the sheet pans, add the maple syrup, toss, and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, until the edges are caramelized. Watch them carefully! Toss with a metal spatula and set aside for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, combine the cranberries and orange juice in a small saucepan, bring to a simmer, then set aside for 10 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk in 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Place the arugula in a large bowl and add the carrots, cranberries (with their liquid), goat cheese, almonds, and the vinaigrette. Toss with large spoons, sprinkle with salt, and serve at room temperature.
