Spicy Carrot Salad

Ingredients

• 5 Large carrots (peeled)
• 2.5 cloves Garlic (minced or crushed)
• 1 Chili pepper (large or medium, diced)
• 0.25 cup Lemon juice (freshly squeezed, approximately from 2 lemons)
• 2 tbsp Olive oil
• 1 tsp Harissa (optional)
• 1 tsp Sugar
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.25 tsp Cumin
• Black pepper (a little)
• 1 Whole lemon (for zest and dicing)

Steps

1. 1

   Cut the carrots into strips (not too thin, keep them slightly thick). You can use a food processor with a julienne disc, a mandoline, a grater, or a knife. Place the carrot strips in a large bowl.

2. 2

   Grate the lemon zest into the bowl with the carrots.

3. 3

   Using a knife, remove the remaining white pith from the lemon and cut the lemon flesh into small cubes. Try to remove any seeds.

4. 4

   Add the lemon cubes to the carrot bowl. Add the crushed garlic, chili pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, harissa, sugar, salt, cumin, and a little black pepper.

5. 5

   Mix the salad well and serve.
