Carrot Salad With Coriander Vinaigrette And Pistachios Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the whole carrots (cut them in half if they don't fit in the pot) and cook until just cooked through, about 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and cut carrots into 1/2-inch thick slices.
• Whisk together the lemon juice, garlic, cumin, cayenne, and salt in a large bowl. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil until emulsified and stir in the parsley. Add the cooked carrots and toss to combine. Serve cold or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat over to 350. Toast pistachios 6-8 minutes until golden brown, tossing occasionally. Let cool & coarsely chop. Toast coriander in dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute. Cool & coarsely chop. Whisk garlic, lemon juice, red pepper, coriander in large bowl, then whisk in oil & season with salt. Add carrots, toss and let sit 30 minutes. Toss with cilantro and pistachios just before serving. Can be made 1 day ahead.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip 1 tbsp of the oil, the carrots, chickpeas and cumin onto a baking tray, season and toss to coat. Roast for 30 mins or until the carrots are tender.
• Mix together the lemon juice, honey and remaining oil, then pour all over the roasted carrots and chickpeas. Leave to cool. You can chill the salad at this stage, for up to 1 day; just bring it out of the fridge 1 hr before serving.
• Mix through the mint, spinach leaves and pistachios, and check the seasoning. Scatter the feta over and drizzle with a little extra oil.
