Ingredients

Directions

  1. Peel the carrot and grate it using a box grater or food processor until you have about 1 cup of coarse shreds.
  2. Bring a small pot of water to a rolling boil.
  3. Add the grated carrots to the boiling water and cook for exactly 30 seconds to blanch them.
  4. Drain the carrots thoroughly in a colander and rinse briefly with cold water to stop the cooking process; squeeze out excess moisture.
  5. In a mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, sugar, ground cumin, and finely chopped onion.
  6. Add the drained carrots and chopped fresh pepper to the yogurt mixture.
  7. Stir everything together gently until well combined.
  8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving chilled.
