Carrot Kosumbari ( Carrot salad )

Many types of Kosumbari are prepared in Karnataka. I will introduce one by one. To start with I have chosen Carrot ( Gajjari) kosumbari which is one of my favourites. :-)

Because of Carrot's strong color, Carrot salad is attractive also :-).
Some people use soaked split green gram or soaked Bengal gram along with Carrot, but I prefer using Carrot alone.

Ingredients

=================

Carrot - 1

Lemon juice - 1 spoon

Salt

Green chilley - 1

Coriander leaves - 1 spoon

Asafoetida (hing) - a pinch

oil - 1 spoon

Urad dal - 1 spoon

Mustard seeds - 1 spoon

Method

===================

1. Grate the carrot

2. In a pan, heat the oil; add urad dal. When it changes the color, add mustard seeds. When it splutters add chopped green chilly. Fry for a second.

3. Put it on top of grated carrot.

4. Add salt, chopped coriander leaves, lemon juice, asafoetida. Mix well.

Carrot kosumbari is ready !!!! :-)
