Hello! How have you been lately? I hope everything is going well with you. Today, I want to share a super simple recipe that requires minimal effort and only one main ingredient: carrots. You might think of carrots as just an everyday vegetable, but they are quite versatile. This recipe is called Carrot Rapée, a French-style grated or sliced carrot salad or pickle. It’s sweet, tangy, fresh, and crisp. You can serve it as a side dish or a starter. I hope you enjoy it! Now, let’s get cooking!
Ingredients
2 carrots
20ml white wine vinegar
70ml olive oil
90ml orange juice
Salt and black pepper to taste
a few raisins
pinch of cumin powder (optional)
Instruction
- Peel the carrot using a speed peeler, then slice it thinly. In the mixing bowl, add the carrot and salt, then mix for 1-2 minutes and set aside for about 5 minutes.
- In another mixing bowl, add the orange juice, vinegar, salt, pepper, and cumin powder. Mix well and set aside.
- After 5 minutes, add the carrot water to the dressing, adjusting the seasoning if necessary.
- Pour the dressing onto the carrots and mix through. Then marinate for 30 minutes. The longer it sits, the more flavour it develops.
- To serve, I serve a piece of sourdough with a carrot pickle and a few raisins.
- Enjoy it!
