2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Onto a rimmed baking sheet, combine carrots and olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast about 20 minutes (or until the carrots are deeply browned in spots, but not mushy), shaking the pan every now and again. Transfer carrots to a large bowl. Add remaining ingredients and toss well to coat.
Outstanding recipe! Easy to prepare and quite delicious. The zahtar spice can be purchased from surfasonline.com
