Moroccan Carrots

​ "Unusual flavor with these carrots," commented one of our potluck friends. "It's really quite good."  
     There were nods around the table. This is one of my favorite cooked carrot dishes, but it is different and I wondered how my friends would respond. I now know it will be welcomed anytime I feel like making it. I suspect you'll enjoy it too.

Servings: 6    Serving Size: 1 cup   Preparation time: 30 minutes 

Ingredients

8 medium carrots, sliced lengthwise
​1/4 cup olive oil
*1/4 cup red wine vinegar
4 medium garlic cloves, crushed
1 tablespoon cumin seed, crushed
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
​Option: Use cilantro instead of parsley

*If you don't have red-wine vinegar, you can substitute with balsamic vinegar.

Instructions
​1. Bring water to a boil while slicing the carrots and preparing the parsley by tearing off the leaves and chopping with pizza cutter.
2. Add carrots to the water and boil for six minutes, just until tender. Drain, and place carrots in a container with sides.
3. Whisk together the oil and vinegar. Add the garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper and stir.
​4. Pour the dressing over the carrots and stir in the parsley. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerate for longer marination. May be served warm or cold.
If you have leftovers, pour off the marinate before placing in covered container in fridge.
I hope you enjoy this recipe. Leave a post here to let me know if you've tried this dish and how it turns out.

Good cooking to you,
​Linda

    Linda M. Kurth is the creative mind behind such stories as the romance, Home of the Heart, and her  memoir, God, the Devil and Divorce, as well as the recipes and crafts you'll find in these pages. Here's how this blog began:
    ​
    "This chicken salad is fabulous" my writer friends told me at our little luncheon. "We want the recipe."

    "I've been thinking of starting a recipe blog," I said. "This will be the first dish on it. Will that work for you?"

    "Do it!" they urged. 

    I've thought about creating a cookbook for years, but with all of my other activities, I realize that's not going to happen in the traditional sense. So I'm happy to have this venue to share my favorite dishes and discoveries. I hope you'll find some dishes here that become some of your favorites too.
