Saute the carrots for 6 minutes and combine them with the yogurt only when warm, so the sauce does not split.
Cut the carrot salad ingredients into bite-sized pieces and drain excess liquid so the sauce does not thin on the plate.
Whisk the yogurt with garlic and salt; add the cooled carrots so the sauce stays thick.
Toss the main ingredients with the sauce for 1 minute without crushing them.
Loosen the thick yogurt sauce with 1 tablespoon cold water so it coats the carrot without running.
Transfer to a serving plate and bring it to the table while the sauce is glossy.
💡 Tip: Cooling the carrots completely before mixing with yogurt reduces watering.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Bring it to the table while the sauce is glossy, with warm bread slices on the side.
