CARROT SALAD WITH CORIANDER VINAIGRETTE AND PISTACHIOS



Carrot Salad with Coriander Vinaigrette and Pistachios image

The base of the simple carrot salad is coarsely grated or julienned carrot. The vinaigrette is a simple combination of toasted, crushed coriander seeds, garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and red pepper flakes for a touch of heat! For ease, I recommend grating the carrots with the disc attachment of a large food processor.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

¼ cup unsalted, raw shelled pistachios
¾ teaspoon whole coriander seeds
1 small garlic clove (grated with a microplane)
3 tablespoons (45 mL) fresh lemon juice
¼ teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
⅓ cup (80 mL) extra virgin olive oil
kosher salt
1 lb (0.45 kg) carrots (peeled and coarsely grated (or julienned))
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Toast the Pistachios: Preheat the oven to 350°F (176°C) with a rack in the center position. Place the pistachios on a small baking sheet and toast for 5 to 7 minutes, tossing frequently to prevent them from burning. Set aside and allow to cool completely; then coarsely chop.
  • Toast the coriander seeds in a dry skillet, tossing frequently, until fragrant. Remove immediately from the heat. Coarsely crush in a mortar and pestle (or smash with the side of a knife) and set aside.
  • In a salad bowl, whisk together the grated garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, and chopped coriander seeds. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil, whisking vigorously, until emulsified. Season with salt to taste.
  • Add the grated (or julienned) carrot to the bowl the dressing, toss, and allow the salad to sit for at least 30 minutes. Add the chopped pistachios and fresh cilantro leaves and toss. Serve at room temperature or cold from the fridge.

CARROT SALAD WITH CUMIN AND CORIANDER



Carrot Salad With Cumin and Coriander image

These lemony carrots taste lovely just as the recipe is written, perfumed with toasted cumin and coriander, a hint of garlic, and a touch of cayenne. This recipe draws its inspiration from Moroccan carrot salads, many of which use cooked vegetables, but this version uses slivered raw carrots instead. But if you want to splash out, try a pinch of cinnamon, and top with lots of fluffy chopped cilantro and thinly sliced jalapeño. Or add crumbled feta and olives. For the best-looking salad, use the julienne blade of a food processor, or cut the carrots into thin matchstick shapes with a sharp knife. The large holes of a box grater will work, too, but the result won't be quite as attractive. (But avoid those supermarket bags of pre-grated carrots. They're not suitable here.)
