Roasted and Raw Carrot Salad with Hazelnuts and Rocket

This roasted and raw carrot salad offers a beautiful contrast of textures and temperatures, making it a sophisticated addition to any heart-healthy menu. By combining honey-glazed roasted carrots with crisp, fresh ribbons, the dish captures the natural sweetness of the vegetable in two distinct ways. The addition of peppery rocket and toasted hazelnuts provides a satisfying crunch and depth of flavour that elevates these humble root vegetables into something truly special.

Perfect for a light lunch or a vibrant side dish, this vegetarian salad is rich in nutrients and uses heart-healthy fats from extra-virgin olive oil and nuts. The tangy sherry vinegar and Dijon mustard dressing cuts through the sweetness of the honey beautifully. Serve it as a colourful centrepiece for a seasonal lunch or alongside grilled proteins for a nutritious midweek meal.
