Summer has me craving salads. Here’s a delicious carrot salad, made with a combination of roasted and pickled carrots, with a fish sauce dressing, served on a bed of rice noodles. It’s topped with roasted peanuts, mint and fresh coriander leaves.

I really like your proposal,it’s so fresh and thoughtfully put together.
Your salad shows a well-achieved balance both visually and technically: the contrast between the roasted and pickled carrots adds depth, and the crunchy touch of the peanuts brings in texture very effectively.The arrangement of the herbs is harmonious and gives a delicious, summery sense of freshness. A beautiful dish!
What inspired you to combine these two techniques (roasting and pickling) in a single ingredient? Were you aiming for contrast or complementarity?
Thanks for sharing it.💫

@Sussan Estela Olaya I saw the technique in a book (Mob One) and thought it seemed very unusual. The contrast of soft and sweet roasted carrots, alongside crunchy and salty-sour carrot ribbons worked very well indeed.

@undefined How interesting, Mandy!
The reference to the book Mob One sounds great, and the combination you created really works beautifully—you can tell you applied it with a lot of thought and care. That contrast between the sweet, tender roasted carrot and the crunchy, tangy pickled version adds such an appealing complexity to the dish.
I also love that you explored an unusual technique and made it your own with such great taste. I can’t wait to see what you surprise us with next!
Thanks for sharing the inspiration behind the dish 😊

Love the contrast of roasted and pickled carrots, and that fish‑sauce dressing with herbs and peanuts sounds irresistibly vibrant. Totally craving a forkful right now 🍴
