Morphology

unroasted = roasted (transparent) = un + roast + ed

Meaning is directly derived from 'roasted' with the negative prefix 'un-' producing 'not roasted'.

Etymology

Unroasted combines un- ('not') and roast ('to cook with dry heat', as when you roast coffee beans or roast beef). So unroasted means 'not cooked or processed by roasting'.
