Moroccan Spiced Carrots

I want to make some delicious vegetarian dishes that incorporates the seasonal vegetables that we can find these days. And when my sister and I were making dinner, I thought these Moroccan Spiced Carrots would be a great side dish. And I was so right! They were amazing! So full of flavour and so many textures, they all bought the dish together beautifully.
