Carrot Salad
Each family has members who are very picky about what they eat and have very definite dislikes. My husband is one such who will not eat chana/chole, banana, tindora(aka dondakai/kovakai) etc etc. He has such hatred for cooked carrot that never will he eat carrot curry in any form. But on the other hand he loves raw carrot. I guess all things crunchy are welcomed by him.
Now we all love one raw vegetable dish with lunch. So as a compromise we made up this yummy South Indian tasting carrot salad which is simple but extremely healthy and full of goodness.
4 medium Carrots
2 green chillies
1/2 a lime
Oil
1/2 teaspoon mustard seeds.
Salt to taste
Grate the carrots. Heat oil. Add mustard seeds. When they start spluttering, add green chillies and switch off the flame.
Pour over the grated carrot. Add lime juice and salt to taste.
And thats it. Its that simple.

I can vouch for this. It is indeed yummy. And healthy. For those who like tomatoes, you can chop tomatoes into small pieces and add along with the carrot.
