Guest guest Posted May 22, 2004 Report Share Posted May 22, 2004 Hi. This is Mary Ellen and I tried a new recipe yesterday and I really, really like it, (cannot stop eating it!) so I thought I would share it with the group. I'm not sure where it came from. I found it on a piece of notebook paper, in my recipe folder. Moroccan Carrot Salad 1/2 cup currants. 4 seedless oranges, peeled and sliced. 3 cups carrots, grated. (I grated them very fine in the food processor) 1 medium onion, finely chopped. (I used 1/3 of a red onion) 3 Tablespoons walnuts, finely chopped. (I was out of walnuts, so I substituted pecans) 1/4 tsp. dried red pepper. (I used about 1/2 tsp. red pepper flakes) 3 Tablespoons olive oil. the juice of one lemon. salt & pepper to taste. (I omitted both of these) Measure the currants into a small bowl & cover them with warm water Leave them to soak for 10 minutes. ( I got in a hurry and didn't do this first step). Peel and thinly slice the oranges. Mix these & all the remaining ingredients together in a large bowl & toss gently together. Drain the currants & add them to the salad. Stir well & chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving. I'm sorry I can't say how many it serves because I have been eating it myself and not sharing. My daughter, Angie, tasted it and to my great relief didn't like it, so I got to eat it myself. Did I mention that I really, really like it?
