Spicy Carrot Noodle Salad

🥕 Spicy Carrot Noodle Salad

Ingredients:

• 2 medium carrots
• 1 tsp chilli oil
• 1 small garlic clove, finely chopped
• 1 tsp soy sauce
• ¼ tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp roasted peanuts, crushed
• Salt, if needed
• Spring onion or coriander, optional

Method:

1. Wash and peel the carrots. Using a spiralizer, julienne peeler, or noodle/grater tool, cut the carrots into thin noodle-like strips.
2. Heat chilli oil in a pan. Add chopped garlic and sauté for a few seconds until fragrant.
3. Add the carrot noodles and toss on medium-high heat for 1–2 minutes. Keep them slightly crunchy.
4. Add soy sauce and black pepper. Toss well so the carrots are evenly coated.
5. Transfer to a bowl and top with crushed roasted peanuts for a delicious crunch.
6. Serve warm or chilled as a light, spicy salad.

Quick Tip: Don’t overcook the carrot noodles—they taste best when they remain slightly crunchy.
