Description

This salad boasts a citrusy Moroccan-spiced dressing, onion for a savory pungency, and sweet Medjool dates and navel oranges to add sweet balance.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb (455 g; about 6 to 8 medium) carrots, scrubbed
  • 30 g fresh flat leaf parsley, coarsely chopped (about ½ cup chopped)
  • 1 medium white onion, halved and thinly sliced
  • 4 medium Medjool dates, pitted, halved, and thinly sliced cross-wise
  • 2 medium navel oranges, peeled and sliced cross-wise
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 medium cloves garlic, crushed using a mortar and pestle or grated on a microplane
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon ground sweet paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon ground coriander
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ⅛ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  • Use a vegetable peeler or mandolin to thinly slice the carrot into ribbons. Place the ribbons in a large bowl of ice water and let them sit until curled, about 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
  • Whisk together all ingredients for the dressing in a large bowl.
  • Add all salad ingredients to the bowl with the dressing and gently toss to combine.
  • Serve immediately (see note below).
