Method

1. 1

   Grate the carrots and sauté them in a wide pan with olive oil for about 10 minutes until soft and slightly caramelized.

2. 2

   Add cinnamon and salt near the end of cooking, mix well, remove from heat, and let it cool to room temperature.

3. 3

   In a bowl, whisk the strained yogurt and crushed garlic until smooth.

4. 4

   Gently fold the cooled carrots into the garlic yogurt mixture.

5. 5

   Transfer to a serving plate, top with generous crushed walnuts, and serve warm or chilled.

Note. Adding a tiny pinch of sugar while sautéing the carrots will speed up the caramelization process.
