This is based on a recipe by chef, Jill Dupleix. It's quick and easy-to-make, and has warm flavours from the cumin and cinnamon. Great colour too! Ingredients:
450 g carrots (about 1 pound) |
1 large orange |
1/8-1/4 cup cilantro leaf (coriander) |
1/8-1/4 cup mint leaf |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon icing sugar (confectioners) |
sea salt |
fresh ground black pepper |
Directions:
1. Peel the carrots and grate them coarsely.
2. Peel the orange with a knife, removing all the white pith. Cut it crosswise into 1 cm thick slices, then into small segments.
3. Finely chop the coriander (cilantro) and mint leaves.
4. Put the grated carrot, orange segments in a large bowl.
5. Make dressing and pour over carrot mixture. Sprinkle with herb leaves. Toss lightly and serve.
