Grated Carrot Salad is a Moroccan salad, a simple, healthy, sweet and a spicy
salad. Carrot is a versatile vegetable loaded with vitamins and minerals. It is
an excellent source of Vitamin A, a good source of potassium and contains
Vitamin C & B6 along with other minerals. The carrot has a distinctive
orange color because it has high level of beta-carotene which is a strong
antioxidant. So here is the grated carrot salad for a healthy living…

Method
Wash
and peel the carrots, now grate them and keep it aside. Chop the garlic, green
chillies and cilantro very finely.
In a
large bowl add everything together, give a real good toss and mix everything
really well.
This
salad can be consumed immediately, but if you refrigerate it for at least an
hour it will taste extraordinary.
Suggestions:
You can
skip the green chillies when you make it for kids, but if added gives extra
heat and taste.
Adjust
the lemon juice according to your taste, but the above measurement makes a
perfect lovely salad.
A very
healthy and delicious carrot salad is ready to be enjoyed.
