I always make the same one, and I'm getting tired of it.
It's really good, but I would love to try something different.

Here's my recipe:

Moroccan Carrot Salad

10 Carrots
1 tsp. Cumin
1 tsp. Salt
1 T. Fresh or dried Coriander / Cilantro
2 tsp. Lemon Juice
4 T. Olive Oil
Crushed Garlic
Paprika

Cook the carrots whole (peeled), not for too long, they should have a "bite" to them. Slice into chunks. (I use a zig-zag garnishing knife).
Add the rest of the ingredients.
Mix well and chill.

Enjoy!!

CARROT SLAW – can be used for Pesach, too

A great make ahead dish and stays fresh for at least a week in the fridge!

Shred 8 - 10 carrots, 1 green or red pepper if using, 1 onion, 1 apple. Boil up 1/3 cup sugar, 1/2 cup lemon juice, 1/4 cup oil & 1/2 tsp. salt. Pour over veggies. Chill. YUM!

my recipe is a lot like mishies but I add ketchup to it. also, my family eats cilantro, but for those who dont you can easily use parsley.

Here's an unusual one created by a friend of a friend:

shredded carrots
diced tomatoes
diced pickles

Dressing: Equal amounts of: mayonnaise, sugar, pickle juice
I know that sounds kinda gross, but it's actually really good!

How would this be without the cumin? I don't really love the taste.

I'm boring.

Either shredded carrots with mayo & sugar (dh's favorite).

Or shredded carrots with chucks of pineapple (in their juice)

I created/discovered a recipe with a mustard dressing: blended olive oil, lemon juice, vinegar, a bit of honey and mustard. this dressing is good on cooked beets as well.

I got this idea from Imamother:

a bunch of carrots, peeled
1 onion
a few tablespoons of oil
salt
garlic powder turmeric

Grate the carrots and onion in the food proccessor with the "S" blade until the pieces are really tiny - like a grainy mush. Cook on a low flame with the oil for a while, stirring often, until the carrots turn yellow-ish. Add spices and serve for dipping challah into or just plain. YUM!

Or just shredded carrots, oil, salt, garlic powder. (If you want, you can add raisins and a drop of sugar at this point, if you like something sweeter.)

If you like shredded carrot salad that's not sweet, this is good.

4 carrots, peeled, topped/tailed,
1/2 orange (pref unwaxed)
juice from 1/2 lemon
olive oil
salt
chopped corriander leaves

Grate carrots. Grate/shredd finely zest from orange. Mix juice from 1/2 orange and 1/2 lemon, about 1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil and 1/2 teasp of salt. Pour over grated carrots, add chopped corriander leaves and mix well. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour.

This is best made with fresh, juicy, sweet carrots. You can add mooli/daikon raddish grated similar way to make orange-and-white salad. Orange blossom water (really a bit) as an optional.

this one is different than the traditional
Marinated carrot salad

2 lbs. crinkle cut frozen carrots (slightly cooked)
1 green pepper (I sometimes use red)
1 onion
1/2 c. sugar (I use splenda)
1 tsp soy sauce
1 can tomato soup
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 T mustard
1/4 c. oil (or less)

chop raw pepper and onion. Bring sugar, pepper, salt,mustard, oil, soy sauce and soup to a boil. Pour over carrots, pepper and onion. Marinate overnight.
