As a teacher, I would assign this recipe to my fifth-graders to make. It's easy, much more so if you have a food processor with a julienne disk for the carrots. This is a light and refreshing side for a summer meal or picnic.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 young carrots
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1/4 cup fresh-queezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh cilantro
salt
finely ground black pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Peel and grate carrots.
  • Combine all ingredients in serving bowl. Sere cold.

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for fresh, crisp carrots that are free of blemishes. Organic carrots are a good option, as they are grown without the use of pesticides or herbicides.
  • Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will help you create thin, even slices of carrot. This will ensure that the salad is evenly cooked and has a pleasant texture.
  • Don't overcook the carrots: Carrots should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a crunch. Overcooked carrots will be mushy and bland.
  • Add the dressing while the carrots are still warm: This will help the dressing to soak into the carrots and create a more flavorful salad.
  • Chill the salad before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and the salad will be more refreshing.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, will add a pop of color and flavor to the salad.

Conclusion:

Chilean carrot salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste.
