Prep: 12 min | Cook: 11 min | Total: 33 min

Cost: $7.25 total, $3.62 per serving

Ingredients

  • 8 oz Burrata cheese (Whole ball, room temperature)
  • 2 Carrots (Medium, peeled and cut into thin matchsticks)
  • 1/2 cup Plain Greek yogurt (Full‑fat for creaminess)
  • 2 tbsp Extra‑virgin olive oil (For sautéing carrots)
  • 1/4 tsp Salt (Fine sea salt)
  • 1/8 tsp Freshly ground black pepper (To taste)
  • 1 tsp Fresh lemon juice (Adds brightness to the sauce)
  • 1 tbsp Fresh chives (optional) (Finely chopped for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare ingredients

    Gather all ingredients and equipment. Pat the burrata dry with paper towels and let it sit at room temperature while you work.

    Time: PT5M

  2. Slice carrots

    Peel the carrots and cut them into thin match‑stick strips (julienne). This shape will sauté quickly and become nicely caramelized.

    Time: PT5M

  3. Sauté carrots

    Heat the skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil, and swirl to coat. Add the carrot strips, sprinkle with salt, and sauté, stirring occasionally, until they turn a golden‑brown color, about 8 minutes.

    Time: PT8M

    Temperature: Medium heat

  4. Make the yogurt sauce

    Reduce the heat to low, add the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, and a pinch of black pepper to the skillet. Stir gently until the yogurt is warmed through and coats the carrots, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat.

    Time: PT3M

  5. Plate and serve

    Place the burrata ball on a serving plate. Spoon the warm carrot‑yogurt mixture over the top, letting it pool around the cheese. Garnish with chopped chives if using. Serve immediately.

    Time: PT2M

Critical Success Points

  • Sauté carrots until golden‑brown without burning.
  • Warm the yogurt on low heat to prevent curdling.

Safety Warnings

  • Use a splatter guard when sautéing carrots in hot oil to avoid burns.
  • Do not overheat the yogurt; it can separate and become grainy.
