Orange And Carrot Salad Food

ORANGE CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Place carrots in a medium bowl. Section oranges into the bowl to catch juices. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Cover and chill for several hours.

GRATED CARROT AND ORANGE SALAD RECIPE

Steps:

• Peel the carrots and grate them into a salad bowl.
• Grate the zest from the orange over the grated carrots.
• Cut the orange in half and squeeze the juice over a sieve onto the grated carrots.
• Add the salt and pepper, to taste.
• Drizzle over a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, toss and add the other tablespoon, or more, depending on how moist you want the salad.
• Taste the salad and add sugar/stevia, to taste, if needed.
• Place into the fridge for a few hours and then enjoy.

MOROCCAN CARROT SALAD WITH ORANGE AND MINT

Steps:

• Add the olive oil, cinnamon, cumin, salt, pepper, honey, and orange juice into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Use a wire whisk to blend well, until the salt is dissolved. The dressing will be a dark brown color because of the cumin and cinnamon.
• Taste the dressing with a fork and adjust the ingredients if you want it a little more sweet (honey) or fruity (orange juice).
• Add the shredded carrots and fresh orange pieces and stir with a rubber spatula to blend the salad.
• Top with fresh mint leaves before serving.

CARROT, ORANGE AND RADISH SALAD

Steps:

• Slice carrots and radishes as thinly as possible and add to a large bowl. Add mint and cilantro. Remove the peel and pith from the oranges. Working over a bowl to catch the juice, cut between the membranes to remove the orange segments; add them to the carrots. Squeeze the membrane to extract the rest of the juice and add the cinnamon, sugar, lemon juice, orange flower water, and salt, to taste. Mix to dissolve sugar and salt. Pour over the carrot mixture and gently toss to coat. The salad can be served immediately but allowing it to sit for 1 or 2 hours will help the flavors to blend. Just before serving, taste and adjust seasoning.

MOROCCAN CARROT-BLOOD ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees.
• Quarter the carrots lengthwise and cut each length crosswise into 2-inch chunks. With a mortar and pestle or using the side of a knife, lightly crush the cumin, coriander and fennel. Spread carrots on a large rimmed baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons oil, crushed spices, 3/4 teaspoon salt and cayenne. Transfer to oven and roast, tossing occasionally, until carrots are tender and caramelized, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, grate zest of 1 orange into a small bowl. Whisk in garlic, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and lemon juice. Whisk in 2 tablespoons oil.
• Slice the tops and bottoms from each orange. Stand each orange on a flat surface and slice away the rind and pith, top to bottom, following curve of the fruit. Hold oranges over a large bowl and slice away fruit between the membranes, releasing segments into the bowl.
• Toss carrots, arugula and olives into the bowl. Gently toss in dressing. Taste and add more salt and lemon juice if necessary.

MOROCCAN DATE, ORANGE AND CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Separate the lettuce leaves and arrange them on individual serving plates. Place a small mound of the grated carrots on top.
• Peel and segment the oranges and arrange them around the carrots.
• Place the dates on top and then sprinkle with the almonds.
• Combine the lemon juice, sugar, salt and orange flower water and sprinkle on the salad.
• Serve chilled.

MOROCCAN-STYLE CHICKEN WITH CARROT & ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Mix 1 tsp of the cinnamon with the cumin and coriander in a small bowl. Heat the oil in a frying pan, add the onion, then quickly fry until lightly coloured. Add the pine nuts, then fry until lightly toasted. Stir in ½ the spice mix, the raisins and the juice of ½ the lemon. Heat through, stirring, then remove from the heat.
• Open out the chicken thighs and spoon a little stuffing onto each. Fold the chicken meat over to enclose the stuffing, then secure each thigh with a couple of cocktail sticks. Place in a non-stick roasting tin with the cocktail sticks underneath, then sprinkle with the remaining lemon juice and spice mix. Bake for 30-35 mins until the chicken is tender and golden.
• To make the salad, tip the carrot into a bowl. Using a sharp knife, remove the zest and pith from the oranges, then cut into segments between membranes. Do this over the bowl to catch the juice, letting the segments drop in. Sprinkle with the reserved cinnamon and a little black pepper, then mix well.
• Divide the salad leaves between 4 plates, spoon over the salad, then sprinkle over the coriander leaves. Place the chicken alongside and serve.

ORANGE AND CARROT SALAD

• Mix first 4 ingredients together in a bowl.
• Add salt and powdered sugar to taste.
• Cover and chill.

CARROT SALAD WITH ORANGE, GREEN OLIVES, AND GREEN ONIONS

Steps:

• Cook carrots in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 7 minutes. Drain well.
• Whisk oil, lemon juice, orange peel, and coriander in large bowl to blend. Add hot carrots and toss to coat. Cool, tossing occasionally. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with honey, if desired. Stir in olives and green onions. Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Keep refrigerated.)
• Stir salad to redistribute dressing. Garnish edges of platter with orange slices and parsley. Mound carrots in center.

CARROT, AVOCADO, AND ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Pound the garlic with a healthy pinch of salt in a mortar until you have a wet, fairly smooth paste. (You can also do this on a cutting board, chopping and mashing and chopping and mashing until you're satisfied.) Put the paste in a large mixing bowl. Add the cumin, coriander, chilies, and 1/4 cup of the olive oil and stir well, then add the carrots and toss well so they're coated with the oil and spices. Sprinkle on 3 healthy pinches of salt, crushing the grains with your fingers as you add them, and toss again.
• Put the carrots in a large shallow baking dish in one layer. Scrape out the extra garlic, spices, and oil from the bowl and spread evenly on top of the carrots. Pour 1/4 cup water into an empty spot in the casserole (you don't want to wash off the tasty oily stuff) and tilt the dish so the water spreads across the bottom.
• Cover the dish tightly with foil and put it in the oven. Cook the carrots for 25 minutes. Take off the foil and keep cooking until the carrots are lightly browned, and about as tender and creamy as avocado flesh, but not so soft that they threaten to fall apart, about 35 minutes more.
• While the carrots are roasting, segment the orange as you would a lemon. Squeeze the membranes into a small bowl to release the juice. Set it aside.
• When the carrots are done, take the dish out of the oven and let it sit until the carrots have cooled a bit but are still warm.
• Meanwhile, take the avocados from the fridge. Halve them lengthwise, remove the pits, and peel the halves. Cut the flesh lengthwise into slices about the same size as the carrots-the slices should be sturdy enough that they don't break up when you toss them.
• Put the avocado slices in a large mixing bowl and add the reserved orange juice, the lemon juice, the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, and a healthy pinch or two of salt. Toss gently and well with your hands. Push the avocado to one side of the bowl. Add the carrots a handful at a time, scraping and tossing them in the beautiful green liquid in the bowl before adding the next handful. Make sure to scrape out and add all the garlicky spices left in the baking dish. Toss it all together gently, being careful not to break the avocado slices.
• Stack the carrots, avocado, and orange segments on a platter or in a serving bowl so they're facing this way and that. Top with the cilantro and serve right away.

HALLOUMI, CARROT & ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Cut the peel and pith away from the oranges. Use a small serrated knife to segment the orange, catching any juices in a bowl, then squeeze any excess juice from the off-cut pith into the bowl as well. Add the mustard, honey, vinegar, oil and some seasoning to the bowl and mix well.
• Using a vegetable peeler, peel carrot ribbons into the dressing bowl and toss gently. Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan and cook the halloumi for a few mins until golden on both sides. Toss the watercress through the dressed carrots. Arrange the watercress mixture on plates and top with the halloumi and oranges.

ROASTED CARROT, SPELT, FENNEL & BLOOD ORANGE SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and cook the spelt with the stock cube following pack instructions - don't overcook it, as it should still have a little nutty bite. When the spelt is done, drain it very well and toss on a platter with 1 tbsp of the extra virgin olive oil to stop it from sticking together too much.
• Meanwhile, toss the carrots with the olive oil, blood orange zest and some seasoning in a roasting tin, then roast for 15 mins. Carefully stir through half the honey with the fennel. Continue roasting for another 10 mins, then cool for 5 mins. Cut away the pith and peel from the 2 zested oranges, then roughly chop or slice.
• Whisk together the remaining extra virgin olive oil, 1 tsp honey, red wine vinegar and the blood orange juice with some seasoning. Scrape the roasted carrots and fennel plus any cooking juices on top of the spelt, along with the orange chunks, red onion, herbs and olives. Drizzle over the dressing and toss everything together well. The salad will happily hold at room temperature for a few hours, but the spelt will soak up the dressing - so if you're making it ahead, add half the dressing when assembling and stir through the rest just before you serve it. As you serve, stir through the parsley, if you like.

ORANGE AND CARROT SALAD

Steps:

• Wash and shred carrots.
• Wash and finely grate the orange part of the orange peel.
• Peel the orange and chop into bite sized pieces, making sure to retain the juice and not the seeds.
• Mix carrots, orange peel, orange pieces and raisins in a bowl.
• In another bowl, whisk the mayo, olive oil, vinegar and sugar together.
• Taste the dressing to make certain that it is not too sweet or too sour for your liking.
• If too sweet, add a touch more vinegar; if too sour, add a touch more sugar.
• Slowly pour most of the dressing over the carrot mixture and mix well.
• If there wasn't enough dressing to coat everything, add more until the mixture is coated.
• May garnish with drained mandarin oranges.
