This side is surprisingly spicy but was well received.
Carrot Ginger Salad
1/4 teaspoon ground cayenne (or less if you don't want it that spicy)
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, peeled and finely grated
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
2 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 Tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves, chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 large carrots, peeled and shredded
Please use a glass or ceramic bowl to make this salad. Combine the dressing ingredients in the bottom of the bowl. Whisk to blend. Add the carrots on top and toss to coat. Cover tightly and chill a couple hours for the flavors to blend. This is not your mother's carrot salad. It is not sweet but rather quite zippy. Enjoy.
