CARROTS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the Carrot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 20-25 minutes (shifting halfway).
FRIKKADEL PREP
In a bowl, combine the mince, the chopped chorizo, the spiced crumbs, ½ egg, and season. Wet your hands slightly and shape the mixture into 4-5 mini patties. Set aside.
FAB FRIKKADELS
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the patties until browned and cooked through, 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan.
GLAZED CARROTS
When the carrots have 5-8 minutes left to cook, drizzle the sweet glaze over them and shake the tray to coat evenly.
CHEESE SAUCE
Place a small pot over medium heat with 10g of butter. Once melted, vigorously mix in the flour to form a roux. Cook out the flour, 1-2 minutes (stirring constantly). Slowly whisk in the milk. Once the milk is incorporated, loosen with a splash of water or milk (optional) if it's too thick, and add the grated cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted, mix in the chopped chipotle chillies (to taste), and season.
JUST BEFORE SERVING
In a salad bowl, add the roasted carrots, the green leaves, the drained feta, and a drizzle of olive oil.
