When I want to make one more dish for dinner, I often make ‘Carrot & Walnut Salad’ because I always have Carrots and Walnuts. Today I added Dill and dressed the salad with Sour Cream, Mayonnaise and Lemon Juice for a change. It was delicious. If you prefer Mustard Dressing, the recipe is also included below.
Makes
4 Servings
Ingredients
2 large Carrots *about 350g
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 Red Onion *thinly sliced OR finely chopped
1 tablespoon chopped Dill *You can add more
Black Pepper
1/2 cup Toasted Walnuts *coarsely chopped OR broken
1 tablespoon Sour Cream *OR Unsweetened Yoghurt
1 tablespoon Mayonnaise *I use Japanese Mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
Method
- Peel Carrots and cut into thin strips. Add Salt and mix well.
- Add all other ingredients and mix to combine. You can save some Walnuts and add them on top before you serve. *Note: Allow it rest in the fridge for a few hours if you have time. The salad would taste better. Mix well before you serve.
- *Note: Instead of Sour Cream, Mayonnaise and Lemon Juice, you can dress this salad with the popular Mustard Dressing.
Mustard Dressing
1 to 2 teaspoons Wholegrain Mustard OR Dijon Mustard
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
1/2 tablespoon White Wine Vinegar *optional, depends on the sourness of the Lemon Juice
1 teaspoon Sugar
1 tablespoon Olive Oil OR Sunflower Oil
