Slice carrots into uniform sized medallions or rounds. If the carrots are thicker, cut them into half before slicing.
Place carrot slices in the top basket of a steamer and steam the vegetable for about [timer minutes=10]10 to 15 minutes[/timer] until quite tender but still retaining shape. Make sure they don’t over cook and fall apart.
Tip: Alternatively, boil carrot slices in a large pot of salted water for [timer minutes=20]20 minutes[/timer] and drain very well.
While the carrots are cooking, take a large mixing bowl and whisk olive oil, lemon juice, honey, grated garlic, paprika, sumac, ground cumin, ground coriander, cinnamon or cardamom, black pepper and salt.
Then add the warm carrot slices, cilantro, parsley, green onions and toss it all together. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Serve the salad warm or at room temperature.
