Oasis Carrot Salad

INGREDIENTS
2   large carrots
2   tablespoons finely chopped onion
1   clove garlic, minced
2   tablespoons dry white table wine
1   tablespoon white wine vinegar
1   teaspoon dry cilantro
1   teaspoon dry parsley flakes
1   teaspoon ground cumin powder

METHOD
Peel the carrots and cut into four-inch lengths. Slice length-wise on the smallest opening of a guillotine, being careful with your fingers. Use the holder to slice them, and turn them around after several slices to keep the slices even. Steam the sliced carrots for 4 to 5 minutes, run cold water over them to stop the cooking process and drain.

In a medium bowl, mix the onion, garlic, wine, vinegar, cilantro, parsley and cumin. Add the carrot slices and mix to coat. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, drain and serve.Will provide 2 servings.
