I just booked my next big trip! I’m on my way to Thailand in April! I would love your suggestions if you’ve been! To get myself in the mood, I’ve started working on some Thai inspired recipes. This one is a cornucopia of flavor and color!
Thai Carrot Salad
2 large carrots, julienned or shredded
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup shredded coconut (non-sweetened)
1/4 cup chopped roasted cashews
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno, finely diced (option if you like spicy!)
dressing:
1 cup full-fat coconut milk
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 tbsp. curry powder
1 lime, juiced
1/4 tsp. sea salt
Puree the dressing ingredients in a blender and set aside.
Toss the salad ingredients together and either combine with the dressing for a more “slaw” salad or plate the carrot mix and top with the dressing.
Enjoy room temp or chilled. This salad becomes even yummier when it’s combined and refrigerated overnight.
This looks delicious!
I’ll be making this today with carrots from the garden! I just found your blog through Kathys, and can’t believe I haven’t stumbled across it before…lots of good stuff here:)
Huummm, Looks delicious !!
So excited to try this with my new veggie-shredder- so yummy-looking and so simple!
So beautiful! I love eating bright food! It makes me feel happy inside. 🙂 Can’t wait to make this.
This looks delicious! I want to make it and dream about a vacation in Thailand 🙂 I hope you blog about Thailand and share your adventures!
It is a good choice here to Brazil, too lol
What a delicious recipe! I’m saving it for this week when my mom comes to visit! She loves when I try new recipes on her.

carrot salad? Inspiring. 🙂
The thai carror salad looks pleasant in the eye. I would like to try one of those in Koh Samui.

I also look forward on trying this food.
Hi, thanks for sharing. This is look so delicious!
The salad looks delicious. Is a typical dish of Thailand even? It looks pretty good. One day I will try.
Not a typical dish, but I used a lot of the typical flavors 🙂
This is a real salad treat, I prepared it last weekend and everyone at home really enjoyed it, thanks for the tip 🙂
