Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Combine the brown rice, 3 cups water, 1 tsp turmeric, and ½ tsp salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover tightly, and cook until the water is fully absorbed and the rice is tender, about 40–45 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

While the rice cooks, toss the carrot coins with 2 tbsp olive oil, cumin, and ¼ tsp salt on a large rimmed baking sheet, spreading them in a single layer. Roast until the edges are golden and the carrots are tender when pierced with a fork, 22–25 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
