Ingredients
Instructions
Heat 1/2 of a juicy lime in the microwave in a medium sized glass bowl for 20 seconds.
Carefully (can be hot) squeeze the juice, and discard the lime – should have 3 tablespoons.
(This is the best way to get the most juice from citrus.)
Add the sugar, stir well to dissolve.
Add all remaining dressing ingredients, stir to combine.
Peel carrots.
Shave each with a wide vegetable peeler to create long shavings.
Will have 2 cups of packed carrots.
Add to bowl of dressing, toss and serve.
Add garnishes if desired: toasted cashew halves and sliced Asian chives.
Great with: Glazed Hoisin Salmon with Pine Nuts
