Ingredients
  

For the Carrot Fries:
  • 1.5 lbs Carrots (fresh, firm)
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil (extra virgin)
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Ground Coriander
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Salt
For the Garlicky Yogurt Dip:
  • 1 cup Vegan Yogurt (unsweetened, plain)
  • 1 clove Garlic (freshly grated)
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Dill
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Tamari
  • 1 tsp Lime Zest (optional)

Equipment

  • Sheet pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Microplane
  • Spatula
  • Measuring spoons
  • Knife and cutting board

Method
 

Preparation Steps:
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). A hot oven is key to achieving that perfect crispiness.
  2. Wash and peel the carrots. Cut them into thin, fry-like strips, ensuring they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the carrot strips with olive oil, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Toss everything together until the carrots are evenly coated.
  4. Spread the seasoned carrot fries in a single layer on your sheet pan. Make sure they aren’t overcrowded; this will help them roast rather than steam. Place the pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
  5. While the carrots are roasting, prepare the dip. In a medium bowl, mix the unsweetened plain vegan yogurt, finely grated garlic, fresh dill, olive oil, tamari, lime zest (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir until well combined.
  6. Once the carrot fries are done roasting, let them cool for a minute before serving. Serve them warm alongside the garlicky yogurt dip.

Notes

  • Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet—this leads to soggy fries.
  • Ensure you cut the carrots evenly; uneven sizes will roast at different times.
  • Skipping the cornstarch can result in less crispy fries, so don’t omit it!
