This shaved carrot and radish salad is a vibrant celebration of texture and fresh flavours. By peeling the carrots into delicate ribbons and finely slicing the radishes, you create a light, elegant base that perfectly absorbs the zesty lemon and honey dressing. The addition of aromatic cumin-toasted pumpkin seeds provides a satisfying crunch, while a generous mix of soft green herbs like mint and coriander adds a refreshing, fragrant finish.
As a heart-healthy dish, this salad is packed with antioxidants and nutritious fats, making it an excellent choice for a light lunch or a colourful side dish for grilled fish or chicken. It is a versatile recipe that encourages experimentation with whatever herbs you have to hand in the kitchen. For the best results, assemble the salad just before serving to maintain the crispness of the vegetables.

1 teaspoon honey
1/4 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
900g carrots, peeled, shaved lengthwise into ribbons with a vegetable peeler

How to make Shaved Carrot and Radish Salad with Herbs and Pumpkin Seeds
Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add pumpkin seeds and cumin and cook, stirring, until lightly toasted and fragrant, 4–5 minutes. Transfer to paper towels, season with salt, and let cool.
Whisk lemon juice, honey, pepper, and 3/4 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl until honey dissolves. Slowly whisk in remaining 3 tablespoons oil until emulsified.
Toss carrots and radishes with dressing in a large bowl, then fold in herbs, chives, and half of the pumpkin seeds. Top salad with remaining pumpkin seeds. Taste and season with salt and pepper if necessary.
Dressing can be made 5 days ahead. Chill in a resealable container.
