Instructions
Simply toss peeled and chopped carrot with olive oil, some salt and pepper, and roast in a hot oven (220°C is good) until starting to colour. They may need tossing and turning. Allow at least 40 minutes for them to cook.
Mash the carrots up to a coarse paste, adding a bit more extra virgin olive oil to bring out the flavours as you see fit.
