"This is adapted from Claudia Roden's "The New Book of Middle Eastern Food". I was pleasantly surprised by the flavor combos. It tastes like a very fresh carrot cake without all the work...and it's healthy!"

I served this salad as a side to a lovely honey ham for a pre-Easter dinner. I used dried cranberries instead of raisins and followed instructions as listed; this turned out perfectly! Thanks for sharing. Made for the Billboard Recipe Tag game.

Love the combination of Moroccan flavours in this sweet carrot salad, very nice and goes well as a side for any meal.  I used my large grate to grate it and added a wee bit of orange and lemon rind to the mix.   thanks for posting.

I made these to go with Luvcookn's Chicken Tikka Masala and it was a perfect side dish along with some Jasmine rice. I loved the two together and the blend of spices in the salad with the raisins was absolutely delicious. I will make this again with the chicken as they pair so well together and made a lovely meal. Thank you for another winner T! Linda
