Grated Carrot salad

This simple salad is a favourite at my mum’s .You can impress your guests with this simple and quick recipe that would look like you have really slaved to get it right. Nothing better I say 😉

Serves: 2

Prep Time: 15 minutes including the grating

You will need:

• 3 fresh medium-sized organic carrots
• 1 tsp small size black mustard seeds
• Salt to taste
• ½ teaspoon oil
• 1 Large heaped tbsp Chobani Blood Orange yogurt

Method:

• Peel and grate the carrots after beheading them – Ha! I wanted to write that just to reinforce the morbid tone here that the word ‘’Blood Orange’’ .Wonder why such a delicious fruit has such a murderous sounding name 😉
• Heat 1 tsp oil in a saucepan and pop in the mustard seeds and the finely chopped green chilli
• When the mustard seeds begin to explode like miniature heat bombs, add the grated carrot and stir lightly.
• Add salt to taste and take off the heat. We don’t want to overcook the carrot here and need to ensure it stays nice and crunchy!
• Serve in small portions with a large blob of the yogurt on top ensuring you use a spoon that goes to the BOTTOM of the pot of yogurt as the fruity bit and heavenly fruity yogurt likes at the BOTTOM of these pots, like a secret hidden treasure, ummm!
