Moroccan Carrot Salad W Chili Cumin Recipes

MOROCCAN-STYLE CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add carrots and cook for about 20 minutes until nice and tender. Drain.
• Transfer the cooked carrots immediately to a large mixing bowl. And while nice and warm, season with a dash kosher salt, and the spices (harissa spice, cumin, coriander and paprika.) Add minced garlic, celery, cilantro, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil.
• If you like, add a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Give the carrot salad a good toss to combine. Set the carrot salad aside for a bit before serving (it's best served at room temperature.)

• Mix the grated carrots with the orange juice and cumin.

• Drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle over a couple tablespoons each of chopped coriander and parsley, if desired.

SPICED MOROCCAN CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Cook the carrot slices in well-salted boiling water, just until al dente, about 3 to 5 minutes. The carrots should be softened but still firm. Drain well.
• While the carrots are cooking, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, honey, lime juice, cumin powder, ginger, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and 12 turns of fresh black pepper.
• Add the drained carrots to the honey lime dressing. Add the fresh herbs, and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning.
• Let the carrots marinate in the dressing for about 10 to 15 minutes, tossing occasionally so that all the liquid evenly coats and absorbs into the carrots. Serve slightly warm or at room temperature, maybe with a little more fresh herbs as a garnish.
