1 lb (500 g) coarsely shredded carrots, about 5 medium
1/2 cup (125 mL) lightly packed, coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup (125 mL) lightly packed, chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon (5 mL) coriander seeds
1 teaspoon (5 mL) caraway seeds
1 tsp (5 mL) cumin seeds
1/4 cup (60 mL) extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons (45 mL) fresh lemon juice
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon (5 mL) sea salt
1/2 tsp (2.5 mL) ground cinnamon
2 tsp (10 mL) sweet paprika
pinch of cayenne pepper

Combine the carrots, parsley and cilantro.
Heat a small frying pan over medium heat. Add the coriander, caraway and cumin and stir until fragrant. Transfer to a coffee or spice grinder and grind to a powder.
