7 Tbsps extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion -- finely chopped
1 pound carrots -- peeled and coarsely grated
3 garlic cloves -- (3 to 4)
1/2 tsp salt

2 teaspoons Aleppo pepper -- or paprika
To garnish: -- olives, optional
In a 3-quart pot, heat 5 Tbsps of the oil and sauté the onions, stirring
over medium heat for 5 minutes. Do not let them brown or burn.
Add the carrots, stirring to mix well, and continue cooking for 10
minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Crush the garlic and salt in a mortar and pestle.
Place the cooled carrots in a large bowl and add the drained yogurt and
the garlic mixture. Mix well and place in a serving dish.
Combine the remaining 2 Tbsps of olive oil and the paprika and drizzle in
a design over the top of the carrots, decorate with olives if desired.
Serve at room temperature or chilled.

Carrots will never be the same after you've eaten this dish! Turkish
zucchini can be used instead of the carrots, but a tsp of dried mint needs
to be added to the dish.
