It's easy, quick and delicious. The salad goes well with some homemade bread. If you like, use raisins or other dried fruit instead of dried cranberries. It makes a great easy lunch or side with any meat dishes.

 
  • 3-4 Carrots, grated, shredded, shaved or spiralized
  • 1 handful of mint leaves, roughly chopped
  • 50 g Dried cranberries
  • 50 g Smoked almonds, roughly chopped
  • 4 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp Truffle balsamic glaze
  • 1 Garlic clove, peeled and finely minced
  • Sea salt
  • Black pepper
  1. Wash the carrots, then using a spiralizer, a peeler or a box grater prepare the carrots and set aside in a large bowl.
  2. Combine the oliveo il, truffle balsamic glaze, garlic, salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
  3. To the bowl with the carrots, add dried cranberries, chopped mint leaves and dressing. Toss everything together. Serve the salad sprinkled with chopped smoked almonds.

    I do eat a lot of carrots like a bunny. I actually made a pie with them today, you just grate five or six big carrots, ad some seasonings, garlic, salt, vegeta if you have it, two eggs, a few spoons of oil and them about a cup of corn flour. You mix that together, pour it into a mold, silicone or paper covered and bake for half an hour. In the end it turns thick and compact like a pudding. Very nice for a lunch or dindins.

    The mere word “Balsamic” sends me into realms of ecstasy. A friend of mine was in Modena last year and brought back a very fine balsamic for me. We use it sparingly, primarily with a really good olive oil for dipping with fresh bread. It I believed in heaven this is what it would be like!

    Very seldom I have had carrot salad with carrot as the star. Carrot is usually just the accompaniment to other veggies

    Hi Angie, I do like carrots and since I'm very limited on greens, this carrot salad will give me the roughage I crave with lots of flavor. Take Care, Big Daddy Dave
