Simple to prepare and simply delicious. I made the recipe exactly as written except I left out the almonds. The cinnamon and orange flower water gave it a very distinct but pleasant taste.

Quick, easy and yummy! I made this as a side dish with Recipe #211007 and it worked out nicely. Thank you Sue L - *Made for Zaar World Tour 4*

I scaled this down to serve 2 and used allspice in lieu of cinnamon for the African spice it up challenge. I used slivered almonds and just a tiny splash of orange blossom water. Very interesting flavours. I wasn't sure whether I liked it after the first mouthful but as my tastebuds adjusted I ate the whole serving myself for lunch, lovely to try something different. made for ZWT 4.

This was a very nice carrot salad. We ended up adding some more orange and only a dash of sugar. DD's loved the sweet and cinnamon taste to thier carrots. Made for ZWT4 - Los Jefes de la Cocina.

Nice salad. I tried it Zurie's way before adding everything else. It's good that way too, but I wanted to try both. I didn't have any orange flower water, though. Reviewed for ZWT4.
