Carrot Salad

I love carrot salad and would always buy it at the Russian Store, but it was so expensive and I didn't always have the time to go there. So here's my version of my home made carrot salad.




ingredients:
carrots 10 ( depending how much you want to make)
garlic (3-4 cloves)
vegetable oil
white vinegar
salt
black pepper
coriander
red chili powder
sugar

This is the peeler or julianner I use and I love it!

process:  At first I peel all the carrots and juliann them or you can also shred them. After them I put all the carrots in a large mixing bowl and use a garlic presser to press all the garlic and add them to the carrots.Then add the white vinegar about 1/4 cups and add the vegetable oil about 1/2 cup.  For the rest of the ingredients I eyeball all of it and get it to the desired taste I want it. Coriander is the super star in this recipe it's really important it gives it that taste. If you like it spicy add the red chili powder and black pepper. Mix everything together and refrigerate for about an hour and let everything just marinade.
