Good refreshing taste and texture- i didn't have any black mustard so i substituted white mustard seeds and poppy seeds. Also when i make it again i will only use about 350g carrots as 500g made it a little dry with the amount of oil. Thanks for the black cardamon by the way if it was you who sent it for Brazil.
