4 x carrots
Half lemon juice
2 x tablespoons olive oil
1 x tablespoon capers
1 x tablespoon of caper water
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 x piece kombu or sea spaghetti (optional)
Sprig fresh dill
Pinch salt
1: Cut carrots into thin ribbons (width ways)
2: Par-boil carrot ribbons for 8 mins or until soft.
3: Remove from hot water and rinse with cold water.
4: Add all the ingredients to a container and add carrot ribbons so they're sitting in a marinade.
