Ingredients

• 500.0 g carrots
• 60.0 ml fresh orange juice
• 30.0 ml olive oil
• 1.0 tbsp cumin seeds
• 1.0 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 30.0 g fresh parsley (chopped)
• 1.0 unit orange zest (from one orange)

Instructions

1. Wash and peel the carrots. Use a grater or a food processor to shred them finely (medium grater setting).
2. In a dry frying pan, toast the cumin seeds over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
3. In a large bowl, combine the shredded carrots, toasted cumin seeds, orange juice, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
4. Add the chopped parsley and orange zest to the carrot mixture. Toss everything together until evenly coated.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or cumin as desired.
6. Serve immediately, or let it sit for 5 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
