Naturally sweet, carrots are often overlooked but here, we hero this vibrant vegetable. Grated carrots are combined with capsicum and herbs; then tossed through a zesty citrus and ginger dressing for the ultimate easy side dish. Family friendly, this recipe is perfect with your New Zealand beef or lamb, and if the dressing is kept separate, it's great for meal prep too.
