    SHREDDED CARROT SALAD CLOSE UP IN PORTRAIT

    The sweet carrots together with the fresh citrusy coriander (cilantro) and crunchy mixed seeds make a tasty combination that is just so good for you. This salad keeps so well in the fridge with the added advantage of allowing the flavours to develop and meld together making it even more delicious.  

    For those with special dietary requirements, this shredded carrot salad is paleo, vegan, vegetarian, gluten and dairy-free.

    Choose your carrots wisely

    As the carrots are well and truly the star in this shredded carrot salad it is important to choose wisely, if you can try, and buy organic carrots or ones that look tender, sweet and juicy and not dry.

    What to serve with carrot salad

    I loved this salad with our Giouvetsi (a Greek beef and orzo stew) but it is also great curries such as a madras or rogan josh. You could also serve it with roast pork, beef brisket, steak, fish or buy a store-bought chicken for a quick last-minute dinner.

    How to make shredded carrot salad

    1Make your vinaigrette
    In a clean glass jar put in your lemon, lime and olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Shake until emulsified then taste and if it tastes too tart for you then add a dash of honey or maple syrup.

    2Prepare your ingredients
    Trim and peel your carrots then wash them under cold running water then coarsely grate them.
    Wash your coriander (cilantro) under cold running water, cut off the stems and remove any damaged or wilted leaves then roughly chop. Juice your limes.

    Can I make it ahead?

    Most definitely, in fact it will taste even better as the carrots would have soaked up the delicious lemon flavours.

    This will keep in your stored covered in the fridge for at least 3-4 days.
