Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Carrots

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Toss the baby sweet carrots in a bowl with olive oil, harissa paste, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Grill the Carrots

    Place the carrots on the grill and cook for about 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have nice grill marks. Remove from the grill and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Ricotta

    In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Make Beet Chips

    Using a mandoline or a sharp knife, slice the Chioggia beet thinly. Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the beet slices until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    On a serving platter, arrange the grilled baby sweet carrots. Dollop the seasoned ricotta on top of the carrots. Garnish with fried Chioggia beet chips, shiso leaves, and pea tendrils.
