    Roasted Carrot Fries with Garlic Basil Ketchup

    gluten-free, vegan // yields 2-3 servings

     

    6 large carrots

    2 teaspoons Olimila Reseve Blend EVOO

    salt and pepper

    1 teaspoon Olimila Garlic EVOO 

    2 cloves garlic, minced

    1/2 cup ketchup

    2 tablespoons chopped basil

    black pepper

     

    Preheat your oven to 400* F.

     

    Peel and trim ends from carrots. Chop each carrot into 3-4 inch segments. Quarter the segments. If the ends of one or more of your carrots is very thin you may just want to halve it. Aim for fairly uniform pieces.

     

    Toss with oil and salt + pepper and spread in an even layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes, then flip and roast for another 10-20 minutes until golden brown and tender with crisp edges [time will depend on thickness].

     

    While roasting the carrots heat a small pan with 1 teaspoon of oil over medium-low/low heat. Once hot place the garlic in the pan and stir constantly for about 3-5 minutes until light brown in color. If it starts turning brown right away the pan is too hot. Place the garlic on a doubled over paper towel on top of a plate to drain the oil. Let cool.

     

    Mix half of the garlic with the ketchup, basil, and a big pinch of black pepper. Let sit in the fridge while carrots finish roasting.

     

    Toss carrots with remaining garlic and place in the oven for 1 more minute [no longer or it will burn]. Remove from the oven and serve with ketchup.

     

    notes: The garlic addition is optional but tasty. Highly recommend at least adding it to the ketchup.

    Sweet Potato Chips with Truffle Salt

    Ingredients

     

    YIELD: Enough for a good binge

     

    PREP TIME: 5 minutes with a good mandolin, more if slicing with knife

     

    TOTAL TIME: 15 minutes

     

    Enough Olimila's Reserve Blend EVOO to fill a 9-10 inch saucepan to about an inch deep, approx. 3- 4 cups. It sounds like a lot, but you can strain the oil (after it cools) and save it for several more batches.

     

    1 sweet potato, sliced thinly with mandolin (⅛ inch slice)

     

    Olimila's Black Truffle salt to taste (You can try Hickory Smoked sea salt, too. But, the truffle salt is magical.)

     

    Fill saucepan with the grape seed oil at least an inch deep. Depending on the power of your stove top, heat the oil on high to medium high heat.

     

    When you think the oil is hot enough, test the oil with a DROP of water (any more and it could splash back at you). If it sizzles, it’s ready. Place as many slices of sweet potato that will fit without overcrowding (10-20 chips).

     

    Fry until desired crispiness, approximately 5-8 minutes. I like mine slightly burnt and extra crispy. When done, scoop out with a slotted spoon and place on absorbent surface like layers of paper towels or brown paper grocery bags.

     

    Salt immediately. Move on to next batch.
