    OKay, So I didn't have most of the ingredients. What I did have was a bag a shredded carrots from the store. I can't imagine pain stakingly shredding carrots by hand. Also I had no pineapple. Oh yeah, I also hate raisins. So I added julienne ZUCCHINI and diced dried APRICOTS. Also I added a heavy splash of POMEGRANATE VINEGAR and a bit of coriander. I found the whole thing a bit sweet. I plan to use less sugar next time and possibly a bit more vinegar.

    I know AB likes to make carrot ribbons to control the liquid but I just use the food prosessor to grate the carrots. It's much faster and I dont get an excess of liquid from it. I love the garlic and curry in this.

    This is a great Carrot Slaw, not soggy with mayonnaise like some recipes.
    I made it easy for myself by using my Presto Salad Shooter grater attachment to grate the carrots.
    My husband isn't a big curry fan so I only used 1 tsp. curry powder, otherwise I followed the recipe. I added the optional pinch of celery seed. He said he likes this almost as much as my Cole Slaw recipe.
    I will definately be making this again. One more comment, I think it serves more than 4, more like 6 to 8 servings.
