CARROT PASTA SAUCE



Carrot Pasta Sauce image

The fresh ingredients and the short cooking time, make this a perfect light summer pasta dish. I found this recipe online claiming to be a fake tomato sauce. It doesn't taste like tomato, but then again it doesn't really taste like carrot either. The way all of the flavors mesh, it's really an indescribable flavor. Everyone seems pretty skeptical until they try it.

RAW CARROT PASTA WITH GINGER-LIME PEANUT SAUCE



RAW CARROT PASTA WITH GINGER-LIME PEANUT SAUCE image

Categories     Carrot

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the Carrot Pasta:
5 large carrots, peeled and spiraled into noodles
1/3 cup roasted cashews
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro, finely chopped
For the Ginger-Lime Peanut Sauce:
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
4 tablespoons coconut milk
2 tablespoons liquid aminos
Pinch cayenne pepper
2 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and grated
1 tablespoon lime juice
Kosher salt to taste

Steps:

  • To Prepare the Ginger-Lime Peanut Sauce: Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and mix together until smooth and creamy. To Prepare the Carrot Pasta: Wash carrots well, peel them, and pat them dry. Using your spiral slicer, make noodles out of all of the carrots. It will be more difficult to make the noodles once there is only a few inches of carrot left, so you can grate what's left of the carrot. Place all carrot noodles into a large serving bowl. Pour the Ginger-Lime Peanut Sauce over the noodles and gently toss together (I use my hands for this part). Serve with roasted cashews (or peanuts) and freshly chopped cilantro.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor or blender to make the sauce. This will help to create a smooth and creamy sauce.
  • If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can grate the carrots and onion by hand. Just be sure to grate them finely so that they blend well into the sauce.
  • Use a variety of carrots. For example, you could use rainbow carrots, which will add a pop of color to your sauce.
  • Add other vegetables to the sauce. For example, you could add zucchini, bell peppers, or spinach.
  • Season the sauce to taste. You can add salt, pepper, garlic powder, or other spices to taste.
  • Serve the sauce over your favorite pasta. You could also use it as a dip for vegetables or crackers.

Conclusion:

Carrot pasta sauce is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy your favorite pasta dish. It is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and creamy carrot pasta sauce that the whole family will love. So next time you are looking for a new pasta sauce to try, give carrot pasta sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
