How to make
Great recipe with lots of vitamins, suitable for children who love carrots, as well as for mothers who have decided to lose weight.
I will say in advance that Burrata cheese can be replaced with mozzarella, and you can add, along with carrots, other root vegetables to be baked in the oven.
The carrots are washed and peeled, then cut into sticks (or as you like).
Peel the garlic, and crush it with some salt.
Preheat the oven to 390°F (200 degrees), cover the tray you have chosen and consider suitable with baking paper.
The already sliced carrots are placed in the middle of the selected tray, covered with baking paper; to them is added the already crushed garlic, as well as thyme, salt to taste, black pepper to taste, and sprinkled with olive oil. Mix lightly with your hand and distribute evenly in the pan.
Bake for 20 minutes.
For the pesto
The basil leaves are torn off and put in a blender together with 1.7 oz (50 g) of roasted hazelnuts, 1 oz (30 g) of parmesan, salt to taste, black pepper to taste, and olive oil to taste. Everything is ground well to obtain a homogeneous mixture.
The roasted carrots are served with Burrata cheese and basil pesto, sprinkled with balsamic vinegar and roasted hazelnuts.
