Preparation
Step 1
Prepare the ingredients. Use 1 large or 2 small carrots. You will need slightly less apple than carrot, so 1 medium or 2 small apples will work well.
Step 2
Wash the carrots thoroughly, pat them dry, trim the ends and peel them. Wash and dry the apple.
Step 3
Grate the carrot using a coarse, medium or Korean-style carrot grater. You can also cut it into thin strips with a knife if you prefer more texture.
Step 4
Prepare the apple according to your preference: grate it or cut it into small cubes or strips. Remove the core and seeds. You can leave the peel on or remove it.
Step 5
Place the carrot and apple in a salad bowl. Depending on their natural sweetness, add sugar or honey to taste, or leave the salad unsweetened. Brown sugar can also be used for a light caramel note.
Step 6
Dress the salad with olive oil or another vegetable oil of your choice. You can also use sour cream, cream or melted butter. Mix and serve.
