Carrot Kosambari

It had been almost months since I had prepared anything at all with carrot. There were pounds of carrot in the refrigerator. When I asked my family if they liked eating Carrot Halwa, instantly came the reply “No, no sweet dish, please. Make Carrot Kosambari”. The recipe for Cucumber Kosambari has been posted long time back here. The procedure remains the same here, except replace Cucumber with Carrot.

So, here comes the recipe for the most healthiest recipe which needs no cooking, and can be done in minutes.
