Stir the yogurt with the salt flakes. Place a muslin cloth or chux cloth in a fine sieve above a bowl.
Put the yoghurt and salt mixture into the cloth and tie up with some string.
Leave in the fridge overnight. 12-24 hours will yield a soft, creamy texture that is ideal for this recipe.

Pre-heat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
Place the washed and peeled baby carrots into a roasting dish. Add olive oil, honey and salt and pepper to season, ensuring the carrots are well coated.
