"Thin ribbon like cut carrots tossed in a salad"

Why I Love This Recipe

This is another different dish, at the very least for me but it is a fun one to make and definitely not a let down.


Ingredients You'll Need

1 tablespoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
14 ounces (about 4 large) carrots, finely sliced with a vegetable peeler, mandolin, or knife
3/4 ounce (about 1/2 cup) fresh cilantro, leaves picked and stalks finely chopped
Sea salt flakes and freshly ground black pepper


Directions

1. In a small skillet over medium-low heat, dry-toast the cumin seeds until aromatic, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes.


2. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and give them a couple of bashes to crack the seeds. Leave some chunks as they provide a good texture to the final salad.


3. Combine the cracked seeds, honey, oil and vinegar in a bowl with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Toss the carrots with the dressing and allow to sit for 15 minutes or so, giving them a turn when you remember. (The salad can sit for longer if you want; the carrots will start to slacken and give up their juices to add to the dressing.)


4. When ready to serve, mix in the cilantro leaves and stalks. Arrange in a serving bowl or on a platter and serve.


Pairs Well With

This dish can pair nicely with a vinegar dressing, or another sauce.
