Carrot salad

Grate the carrots, cut diagonally into approximately ½ cm thick slices, and sauté them in a little water for about 10 minutes until al dente. Meanwhile, peel the garlic, chop it very finely, and mix it in a bowl with the vinegar, oil, salt, pepper, paprika, and the oregano leaves. Crush the cumin seeds in a mortar and pestle and add them to the marinade. Drain the carrots, toss them in the marinade, and let them marinate, covered, for at least 1 hour. Stir gently from time to time. Tip: Let it marinate overnight; it tastes even better!
