Moroccan Carrot Salad
/Summary: This is an absolutely delicious, extremely simple dish from Claudia Roden. It makes for great leftovers too.
Yield: serves 4
Ingredients:
- 1 pound carrots,* peeled and coarsely grated
- 1/2 cup black or golden raisins
- 4-5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1-2 tablespoons honey
- juice of 1 lemon
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated or very finely diced
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- salt and fresh pepper
Instructions:
Mix everything together in a bowl. Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary.
*If you can find rainbow carrots, slice them into thin rounds instead of grating them. They are so pretty!

I cannot adequately describe my love for this tart nor am I willing to tell you how many I make and eat during plum season. Suffice it to say that this is a truly outstanding, scrumptious, perfect, should-be-your summer dessert!
