Carrot Salad With Creamy Lemon Yogurt And Chive Dressing Recipes

FRENCH CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• To prepare the carrots: You can grate them on the large holes of a box grater, or use short strokes with a julienne peeler, or process them in a food processor fitted with a grating attachment. You'll end up with about 3 cups grated carrots.
• Place the carrots in a medium serving bowl. Add the chives, parsley and optional chickpeas to the bowl.
• To make the dressing, whisk all of the ingredients together in a small bowl until completely blended.
• Pour the dressing over the carrot mixture and stir until the mixture is evenly coated in dressing. For best flavor, allow the salad to marinate for 20 minutes before serving. Toss again before serving. This salad keeps well in the refrigerator, covered, for about 4 days.

• Roast until the carrots are tender and browned around the edges, about 25 minutes, tossing halfway through. Remove from the oven and cool slightly on the baking sheet.
• Whisk together the lime zest and juice and the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large bowl. Add the carrots and toss to coat with the dressing.
• Spread the Herbed Yogurt Dressing onto the base of a serving platter. Arrange the carrots on top of the yogurt and sprinkle with the almonds and tender carrot tops. Serve immediately.
• Combine the yogurt, chives, dill, salt and hot sauce in a bowl and mix well. Cover and refrigerate until you're ready to serve. Makes 1 cup.
