• 1 tsp ground coriander
• ½ tsp turmeric
• ½ tsp mustard seeds
• 1 tsp marjoram
• 2 cloves garlic
• 50 ml apple cider vinegar

Method

1. Start by peeling the carrots and then grate them using a Korean-style grater to create thin noodles.
2. In a large bowl, sprinkle the grated carrots with salt and mix well.
3. Create a small well in the center of the carrots and add the sugar.
