Carrots with Jalapenos and Ginger

 

Recipe By : Jump Up and Kiss Me, by Jennifer Trainer Thompson, page 236

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Side Dishes Vegetables

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 teaspoons yellow mustard seed

2 tablespoons gingerroot -- finely shredded

4 jalapenos -- (about 4 tablespoon

seeded and thinly sliced crosswise

4 cups carrots -- (about 1 pound)

peeled and shredded sweet carrots

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice

OR apple cider vinegar

1 teaspoon brown sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons shredded fresh mint -- up to 3

OR chopped fresh cilantro

2 cups nonfat plain yogurt -- (optional)

 

Serves 4 to 6

 

Be sure to use sweet, flavorful carrots for this simple salad. As a

variation, add 2 cups of nonfat yogurt before serving to make a creamy,

Indian-style dish to accompany a curry dinner.

 

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it is very hot.

Remove the pan from the heat, add the mustard, and cover to prevent the

seeds from popping out of the skillet. Shake the pan gently over the heat

until the popping subsides, about 10 seconds.

 

Uncover the pan and add the ginger and the chiles. Cook, stirring for about

1 minute until the chiles soften. Stir in the carrots and continue to cook,

stirring frequently, until the carrots turn bright orange and are slightly

softened. Stir in the lime juice, sugar, and salt and cook for another

minute. Stir in the mint, and remove the pan from the heat. Taste and

season as desired with more salt, lime juice, and mint. Serve cool, but not

cold.

cauliflower, and mushrooms, and sprinkle with salt. Stir the spices, and
