ROASTED BABY CARROTS WITH CHIMICHURRI

Steps:

• Cut the green leaf stems from the carrots, leaving about 2cm of the thick green stem attached at the bottom. Keep the carrot tops aside. Peel the carrots and wash the greens to remove any debris.

• Remove the seeds from the jalapenos and chop finely. Peel the shallots and garlic and chop finely. Grate the zest of the lemon and juice the lemon.

• In a bowl combine the jalapenos, shallots and garlic. Add the chopped carrot top mixture and combine well.
• Grate the zest of the lemon into the bowl and add the juice of the lemon. Add the oregano, red wine vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes for the flavours to develop.
