Carrots and White Radishes (or Daikon) salad with Cumin

Insalata di Carote e Ravanelli (o Daikon) al Cumino
This salad is so easy to prepare and it is a very tasty way to serve carrots and white radishes. Sometimes I like to use the Japanese daikon instead of the white radishes. I personally prefer this salad with cumin seeds, but a high quality of cumin powder is ok.

Preparation time: about  10 minutes
Cooking time: -
Class: cheap, very healthy


Serves  2

Ingredients:
4 carrots, peeled
3 white radishes (or daikon), peeled
6-7 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
3-4 tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp. cumin seeds or powder
a pinch of salt

Method:
1. With a potato peeler, cut the carrots and the white radishes into very thin strips lengthwise. In a large bowl combine carrots, white radishes, oil, lemon juice and cumin. Season with salt and gently mix all together.
At this point, taste the salad and add more salt if needed.

2. Then, transfer to a salad plate and serve immediately.
