Carrot Wraps Recipes

Steps:

• Place the dried apricots in a bowl or pyrex Pyrex measuring cup and pour on cover with 1/2 cup boiling water. Let steep for 5 to 10 minutes, until soft. Retain the soaking water, remove the apricots, pat dry with paper towels and cut into small dice.
• In a mini-processor or by hand finely chop the garlic and walnuts. Add the cilantro and chop together or process to a paste. Add the apricots and continue to process to a paste. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add 1/4 cup olive oil, the vinegar, salt, and Aleppo pepper and process to a paste. Add 2 to 4 tablespoons of the soaking water from the apricots. The paste should be easy to spread on the lavash.
• Steam or blanch the carrots until just tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Cut into sticks that are about 4 inches long and 1/3 inch wide. Toss in a bowl with the lemon juice, remaining olive oil, dill or mint, and salt and pepper.
• Open up a piece of lavash and square it off by cutting away the rounded ends. You should have a piece that is 10 or 11 inches wide. Divide the walnut spread and the carrots into 3 equal portions. Spread a third of the walnut spread over a lavash. Arrange one batch of carrots on the lavash from one end to the other, about 2 inches in from the bottom. Fold the bottom edge over the carrots and roll up tightly. Cut the roll in half at the middle and trim the ends so that the carrots are showing at both open ends.
• Heat a dry skillet or griddle and heat the carrot roll for a few minutes on one side, until it begins to brown. Turn over and heat on the other side, then serve, accompanying each roll with seasoned or plain yogurt if desired.

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine the carrots, golden raisins, mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and salt and pepper to taste. Stir well.
• Divide the carrot mixture evenly between the lettuce leaves, about 1/2 cup for each lettuce wrap. Fold in the short ends of each leaf, then roll up to close. Set the lettuce wraps on a piece of aluminum foil and fold like an envelope to store.
• Should be eaten the same day; otherwise, store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Steps:

• Spread the hummus between wraps. Coarsely grate carrots and scatter on top of the hummus, finishing each wrap with a small handful of rocket leaves and some seasoning. Roll up and eat.
