Carrot, arugula and iceberg lettuce salad combines sweet, finely cut or grated carrot with peppery leaves and crisp iceberg. It is a simple fresh salad rather than a dish tied to one particular regional tradition, and its mix of textures makes it an easy side for everyday meals. A squeeze of lemon and a little olive oil bring the ingredients together without masking their distinct flavours.
Serve it alongside grilled foods, sandwiches or a larger lunch, as is common in many cuisines. It suits anyone looking for a light, plant-based option: the salad provides 25 calories per 100 g and is noted for vitamins A and K. Keep the dressing modest if you want the vegetables’ freshness and crunch to stand out.
