Raw carrot salad recipe
Insalata di carote
This raw carrot salad recipe with apple, orange and pumpkin seeds makes a healthy, colourful and appetizing starter or sidedish with strong child appeal.
It is amazing how the addition of fruit can lift an otherwise heavy salad. This raw carrot salad recipe uses both apples and oranges in an unusual taste combination.
Ingredients
4 carrots
1 apple
1 orange
1 tbsp roasted pumpkin seeds (can be replaced by pinenuts)
Olive oil
White wine or apple vinegar.
Preparation
Peel and slice the carrots thinly (use a mandoline slicer, if you have got one)
Dice orange and apple and mix well with carrots, oil and vinegar.
Sprinkle the raw carrot salad recipe with roasted pumpkin seeds before serving.

Thanks Adri, We’re all fine here, although I’m sure our winter weather is a lot harder than what you are used to. At least the light is coming back now, and it always makes to future look a little bit brighter:)
I hope you and yours are keeping up as well and that you are all fit to enjoy your good food and colourful cocktails.
