Directions
1 Add flour, 2 2/3 cups water, and 3/4 teaspoon salt to a medium skillet or saucepan. Stirring continually with a whisk, bring to a boil.
2 Place lid over pan and let simmer over medium low heat for 20 minutes. Take lid off and stir with a whisk until there are no lumps.
3 Spoon mixture into an 11 by 7 inch baking dish, greased with cooking spray. Season with curry powder and place in refrigerator for 1 hour or until hard.
4 Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
5 Slice flour mixture into 40 (1 inch) cubes. Move each piece to a baking sheet greased with cooking spray. Bake until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand.
6 Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, mix together carrots, 2 cups water, butter, honey, and ginger and let boil.
7 Place lid over and let simmer over medium low heat for 7 minutes or until carrots are soft. Remove lid and raise heat to medium high. Continue cooking until all liquid is evaporated, about 12 minutes.
8 Using a food processor or blender, pulse together carrot mixture, lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper until creamy.
9 Spoon mixture into a resealable plastic bag, close tightly. Cut a small piece in a corner of the bag.
10 Squeeze 1 teaspoon carrot butter onto the top of each canapé. Season canapés with almonds and cilantro.
