Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) using conventional oven settings (top and bottom heat). Wash or peel the carrots and cut them into slices approximately 0.5 cm (¼ inch) thick. Peel the shallots and quarter them lengthwise.

Place the shallots and carrots in a bowl and mix with oil, a little salt, and Ras el Hanout. Spread on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 200°C for 20-25 minutes.

Mix tahini with lime juice and water to form a creamy sauce, season with garlic powder and salt.

Wash the spinach, spin it dry, and divide it between two plates or bowls. Distribute the roasted vegetables and falafel over the spinach, drizzle with tahini sauce, season with a little extra lime juice, and serve.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Tahini Sauce Perfection 🥄
Whisk tahini sauce thoroughly and let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken and develop a smoother, more integrated flavor profile.
Falafel Warming Technique 🔥
Warm pre-made falafel in a dry skillet over medium heat to restore crispiness and prevent them from becoming soggy or losing texture.
Ras el Hanout Magic 🌶️
Toast Ras el Hanout spice blend in a dry pan for 30 seconds before adding to the dish to unlock its full aromatic potential and deepen the flavor complexity.
Lime Juice Timing 🍋
Add fresh lime juice just before serving to maintain its bright, zesty flavor and prevent it from becoming bitter or losing its vibrant acidity.
Baby Spinach Wilting Trick 🥬
Gently warm baby spinach with residual heat from other ingredients to create a wilted texture without overcooking, preserving its fresh flavor and nutrients.
