This Easy Carrot Raisin Salad is a sautéed, spicy-sweet, healthier spin on the traditional version that is made with mayonnaise. This one is made with only 10 easy-to-find ingredients and can be made in less than 15 minutes.
Ingredients
- 4 small carrots
- 1 onion
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 inch knob of ginger
- 2 tbsp olive oil or oil of your choice
- 1/4 cup pecans unsalted
- 1/4 cup raisins I used golden raisins
- 3 tsp coriander powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 2 tsp chili flakes
- 1 tbsp parsley
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start off by peeling the onion, ginger knob, and garlic cloves. Once they are peeled, chop them up. They do not have to be super fine.
- Then, wash and grate the carrots. You could peel them if you prefer and then grate them, or simply grate them as is.
- Add the olive oil to a large, heavy-bottomed pan and add in the chopped onions, ginger, and garlic. Let these sauté for about 10 minutes, stirring so often, so they do not stick and burn.
- Then add in the coriander, smoked paprika, and chili flakes and mix well.
- Turn the stove off.
- Add in the grated carrots, pecans, and raisins. Mix so all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Garnish with parsley (either fresh or dried) and enjoy!
