Preparation

  2. Prepare the Charred Carrots

    • Toss carrots with oil and salt. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat and sear carrots on all sides until charred. Remove and cool. Using a peeler or mandoline, make ribbons of carrots and set aside.

  3. Prepare the Carmelized Onions

    • Melt butter and slowly cook onions over low heat until caramelized, about 30 minutes.

  4. Prepare Goat Cheese Cream

    • Process goat cheese to soften. Add carrot tops and puree. Add cream and continue to process. Add the lemon zest and season with salt and pepper.

  5. Prepare the Salad

    • For each portion, spread 60 g goat cheese cream on a plate. Combine 30 g spinach, 128 g charred carrot ribbons, and 50 g caramelized onions and toss with 45 ml Hellmann’s Lemon Za’atar Dressing. Top with 23 g kumquat pieces. Sprinkle with the 3.5 g Dukkah seasoning and another 15 ml dressing.
