- 1 spring onion
- 1½ tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- ½ tablespoon lime juice
- ¾ teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Few grindings black pepper
- ½ tablespoon nigella seeds
Instructions
- Coarsely grate the carrots (I like to hold them flat against the grater to get the longest strips possible).

- Mix together the olive oil, mustard, lime juice, honey and seasoning. Pour over the carrot mixture and toss together.
- Sprinkle over the nigella seeds.
- Serve immediately.
