Roasted Carrot And Beet Salad With Feta

• 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
• 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons Sherry vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 cup plus 3 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
• 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 pound baby carrots with 1/2" of tops attached, peeled
• 6 small (1 1/2" diameter) red beets, scrubbed, trimmed leaving 2" of stem attached
• 3/4 cup (lightly packed) flat-leaf parsley leaves, divided
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta (about 4 ounces)

1. Stir cumin seeds in a small dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, 3-4 minutes. Let cool. Finely grind in a spice mill.
2. Whisk cumin, lemon juice, vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup oil, then mint. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
3. Cook carrots in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1 minute; using a slotted spoon, transfer carrots to a bowl. Add beets to same pot of boiling water and cook until just tender, 20-25 minutes. Drain. Let stand at room temperature to cool slightly, about 15 minutes. Peel and trim beets; halve lengthwise. DO AHEAD:
4. Preheat oven to 450u0b0F. Season carrots with salt and pepper. Toss with 1 1/2 teaspoons oil. Arrange on half of a large rimmed baking sheet. Place beets in same bowl; season with salt and pepper and toss with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil. Arrange in single layer opposite carrots on same baking sheet. Roast vegetables, turning once, until slightly charred and just tender, about 15 minutes.
5. Place carrots, 1/2 cup parsley leaves, and feta in a medium bowl; drizzle 1/4 cup vinaigrette over and toss to coat. Arrange carrot mixture on a small platter. Place beets in another medium bowl. Add 2 tablespoons vinaigrette; toss to coat. Tuck beets in among carrots. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup parsley leaves over. Drizzle with remaining dressing.
