Ingredients

  • 350g carrots
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 tbsp caster sugar
  • 1 tbsp white vinegar
  • 1 tbsp dried corriander
  • 1 tbsp dried parsley
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp gochagaru
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp ground pepper

 

We used a mandoline slicer to julienne the carrots- it is perfect for recipes such as this as it certainly saves time and makes the prep easier. You can also use a food processor with a grater attachment.

This recipe uses some gochugaru- so the dish has a bit of a kick. Feel free to use less gochugaru if you prefer.

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Peel and julienne the carrots (cut into matchsticks) and then add to a bowl.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a pan. Whilst heating, dice the onion, then add to the pan once hot. Cook the onions until translucent and cooked through- this should only take a few minutes. Mince the garlic cloves and add to onions, allow to cook briefly for around a minute.

Step 3

Remove from the heat and let cool. Once cooled, transfer to a bowl and add in the ground pepper, salt, gochugaru, caster sugar, white vinegar, dried herbs and sesame oil. Stir well.

Step 4

Pour the sauce over the carrots, ensure the carrots are evenly covered in the sauce. Refrigerate for several hours prior to serving, ideally if possible 6 or so hours. Enjoy!
