Ingredients

  • 4 Carrots peeled in ribbon form
  • Dill handful (can sub with cilantro or parsley)
  • ½ Red onion sliced thinly
  • 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Chili Oil
  • ½ Lime squeezed
  • 1 Garlic grated

Instructions

  • Wash and peel skin of carrots.
  • Use a peeler to make ribbon slices of the carrots.
  • Thinly slice red onion. Remove the stems of the dill and roughly chop the dill leaves.
  • In a large bowl, combine red onion, dill, carrots, rice vinegar, soy sauce, chili oil, grated garlic and freshly squeezed lime juice. Toss well and serve!

Notes

  • Soak the red onions in cold water (optional but worth it): If raw onions are a bit too sharp for you, soak the slices in cold water for 10 minutes to mellow them out. Makes the salad taste a bit cleaner!
  • Grate your garlic finely: A fine grater helps melt the garlic into the dressing so you don’t get big bites of raw garlic.
  • Let it sit for 10–15 mins before serving: This lets the flavors soak into the carrots and gives you that slightly pickled, tangy goodness.
