🥕 Shaved Carrot Salad with Curry & Golden Jewels

Crisp ribbons of carrot mingle with plump golden raisins (or cranberries!) and bright cilantro, all awakened by a zingy curry-ginger dressing. This salad is a vibrant dance of sweet, savory, and spice—a ray of sunshine on your plate.

📝 Ingredients (serves 4)

• ¼ cup Extra virgin olive oil

• ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

• 1 tbsp curry powder (use your favorite blend!)

• 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated

• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

• 1 lb (about 4) carrots, peeled and shaved into ribbons

• ¾ cup golden raisins OR dried cranberries—your pick!

• ½ cup fresh cilantro leaves, roughly chopped

🍳 Instructions

1. Whisk up the sunshine

• In a roomy bowl, whisk together the olive oil, cider vinegar, curry powder, and grated ginger. Season generously with salt and pepper.

2. Prep the carrots

• Use a vegetable peeler to create long, thin ribbons from the carrots. Alternatively, you can use a julienne peeler or a food processor.

3. Toss it all together

• Add the carrot ribbons, golden raisins (or cranberries), and chopped cilantro to the bowl with the curry dressing. Toss gently until everything’s coated.

4. Let the flavors mingle (if you can wait!)

• For the best taste, pop the salad into the fridge for at least 30 minutes. This allows the flavors to really get to know each other.

5. Serve and enjoy!

• Serve chilled and watch it disappear.

🌿 Kuisit Tip

Don't be shy with the curry powder—it's what makes this salad sing! Toasted nuts (like almonds or cashews) would add a lovely crunch. For a vegan version, make sure your honey is plant-based. Enjoy!
