Russian Korean Style Carrot Salad

This is a Russian style Korean Carrot salad. I know it sounds very funny but its a great and healthy way to use up a lot of carrots. Its Vegan/Vegetarian Friendly.

We will Need:
  • 3-4 Lbs of carrots peeled
  • 4 oz of white vinegar ( I used apple cider vinegar) 
  • 3/4 of a cup of sunflower oil
  • 6-7 cloves of garlic
  • Salt and pepper to taste 

  • Slice up carrots as thin as you can ( use mandoline if you have one) 
  • Heat up oil on a medium heat ( make sure its not too hot, because once you add vinegar it might flame up) 
  • Add vinegar
  • Mix well
  • Add garlic salt and pepper to carrots
  • Add vinegar/oil mixture


  • Mix well and let it sit in a fridge to marinate for at least 24 hrs


Enjoy this carrot garlicky goodness!!!
