Recipe makes for 4-6 Servings
2 green and 2 yellow medium zucchini
1 large carrot, peeled
1 Korean green chili or jalapeno
salt
2 tsp sugar
ground white pepper
juice from 1/2 large lemon
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
1 tsp sesame oil
toasted sesame seeds for sprinkling
Directions:
Trim the zucchini and halve them lengthwise. Remove the seeds with a teaspoon and discard. Using a box shredder or mandolin, cut the zucchini and carrot into threads. Thinly slice the chili to about the same thickness as the zucchini.
Place zucchini in a colander and sprinkle with 1 tsp salt, let stand for 15 minutes. Wring out the excess moisture. Do this 2-3 times to extract as much water as possible but handle the zucchini gently to avoid crushing. Repeat with the carrot.
Combine zucchini, carrot and chili in a medium bowl and fluff them up. Sprinkle with sugar and pepper. Stir in salt to taste and mix well. Add lemon juice, ginger, and sesame oil. Sprinkle sesame seeds, toss and serve.
