Carrot Yogurt Appetizer Recipe

Add Step-by-Step Photos	Ozgeolcay / All my dishes 11 months, 3 weeks ago This salad/spread/dip type of dish is my version of a traditional Turkish meze. But I'd rather call it mediterranean seeing that both the ingredients and the preparation easily reminds me of many afro/euro-mediterranean dishes. Prep:30m Cook:1520m Servings:68	Ozgeolcay

butter(amount's up to how much fat you like)

Add in the sauteed carrots and stir thorougly.

Let it sit a couple of hours to let the flavors meld into eachother.

To serve:

Place it in a suitable serving plate,

Or spread it on toasted bread,

Or serve as a dip,

Or serve as side dish,

Good sandwich spread, too.

Optional Topping Sauce:

Melt the butter and add in the cayenne, let it release it's red thorougly into the butter. Top the dish immediately depending on how you serve it.
