Spring Carrot recipe

29 Sep 08

Nicola Galloway

This is a delicious way to eat spring carrots. The gentle sautéing intensifies their flavour and sweetness.

3-4 carrots

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 tablespoons sesame seeds

Juice and zest of 1 orange

Handful chopped fresh coriander or parsley

Salt and pepper to taste

Wash the carrots, then peel and grate.

Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok and toast the sesame seeds until they are golden. Add the carrots, orange juice and zest, and cook quickly for a few minutes until the carrots are soft.

Toss through the coriander and season to taste. Serve as a side to fish or chicken.
