100 g cooked lentils

Olive oil
2 tsp agave syrup or honey
1 tsp cumin

HOW TO MAKE:

• Heat oven to 180 degrees.

• Rinse of your lentils under cold water.

• Peel and cut your carrots halve lengthways. Place them in a big bowl and ripple over some olive oil and the syrup. Mix chili, cayenne, paprika, cumin and sea salt in a small bowl. Scrub it all in to the carrots using your hands.

• Place the carrots on a baking sheet. 

• Place the carrots in the oven and roast for approx 30' until soft and a little bit brown.

• Dressing: Mix all ingredients for the dressing thoroughly. Add thereafter a little bit of water and mix again. Add a little bit of water at a time to get the texture you'd like your dressing to be. I had approx 2 tbsp.

• Combine lentils and possible grains in a bowl with sea salt, thyme and parsley. Place this combination on a plate and add carrots. End with the dressing, sea salt and more parsley.
