Marinated carrots
Here’s a simple recipe for marinated carrots:
Ingredients:
- 1 pound (about 450g) carrots, peeled and sliced into thin rounds or julienned
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup (60ml) olive oil
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) Dijon mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh herbs (such as parsley, dill, or cilantro) for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, olive oil, vinegar, honey or maple syrup, Dijon mustard, ground cumin, salt, and pepper to make the marinade.
- Place the sliced or julienned carrots in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
- Pour the marinade over the carrots, making sure they are evenly coated. Toss the carrots gently to ensure they are well coated in the marinade.
- Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate the carrots for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the carrots to marinate.
- When ready to serve, remove the marinated carrots from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
- Garnish the marinated carrots with chopped fresh herbs, if desired, and serve as a side dish or as part of a salad.
