Orange & Carrot Salad with Citrus Cumin Dressing

Ingredients
3 cups carrots, peeled and thinly sliced (2 purple carrots and 2 orange carrots)
Fresh orange segments from ½ an orange
2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
For the Dressing
1 tbsp lemon-infused rapeseed oil
1 tsp cumin seeds
2 tbsp fresh orange juice (from ½ an orange)
1 tsp lime juice
A pinch of cinnamon
A pinch of ground cumin
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Prepare the carrots: Peel and thinly slice the carrots. Place them in a salad bowl.
Prepare the orange: Cut the orange into segments and add them to the carrots. Reserve the juice for the dressing.
Make the dressing: Lightly toast the cumin seeds in a dry pan until fragrant. Let them cool, then combine with the lemon-infused rapeseed oil, orange juice, lime juice, cinnamon, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Combine: Pour the dressing over the carrots and orange segments. Toss well to coat evenly.
Finish: Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve.
Tip: Let the salad rest for 10–15 minutes before serving to allow the flavours to meld.
