Almost anything with feta is good in my book. When I saw this recipe on I just had to share. Who doesn't need another version of carrot salad? If you don't have harissa at your local market, just make your own: Harissa. Ingredients:
3/4 lb carrot, peeled, trimmed, and grated |
4 tablespoons olive oil |
1 garlic clove, crushed |
1/4 teaspoon ground caraway |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon paprika |
3/4 teaspoon harissa |
1/2 teaspoon sugar |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped |
2 tablespoons mint, chopped |
1 cup feta, crumbled |
1/4 cup toasted pine nuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Saute the garlic, caraway, cumin, paprika, harissa, and sugar until fragrant, about 2 minutes. 2. Remove from heat. Add lemon juice and stir. Pour over the carrots, add the herbs, and mix. Add more harissa if needed. 3. Let sit for 1 hour, then add the feta and pine nuts if using. Serve. |
