Carrot Ribbon Salad

Really quick to put together, this easy carrot salad will happily sit alongside many other dishes. It is delicious as part of a Vietnamese noodle salad, alongside spinach falafels, or in pitas and wraps to add crunch.

Instructions
- In a small skillet over medium-low heat, dry-toast the cumin seeds until aromatic, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Transfer to a mortar and pestle and give them a couple of bashes to crack the seeds. Leave some chunks as they provide a good texture to the final salad.
- Combine the cracked seeds, honey, oil and vinegar in a bowl with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Toss the carrots with the dressing and allow to sit for 15 minutes or so, giving them a turn when you remember. (The salad can sit for longer if you want; the carrots will start to slacken and give up their juices to add to the dressing.)
- When ready to serve, mix in the cilantro leaves and stalks. Arrange in a serving bowl or on a platter and serve.
