Preparation

Peel the carrots, then grate them finely with a grater or mandoline — the finer they are, the better the salad soaks up the flavours.
If you prefer a softer texture, steam them for 8-10 minutes until tender to the tip of a knife, then dice them once cooled.
Mix the carrots in a bowl with the cumin, lemon juice, olive oil and a pinch of salt.
Taste and adjust the tang or salt to your liking, then scatter with chopped parsley.
Let it rest for 10 minutes in the fridge if you can, so the flavours meld, and serve chilled or at room temperature as a side.
