For the vinaigrette

DIRECTIONS

Carrots: Using a vegetable peeler, shave the carrots lengthwise into a bowl. Set aside.
Fava beans: Blanch the beans for 1 minute then plunge them into ice water. Once cool enough to handle, using your thumbs release the beans from pale skin that surrounds the beans. Set aside.

Make the dressing: Roughly chop roasted bell peppers. In a food processor, combine bell peppers, parsley, garlic and honey. Whiz to combine, while the processor is still running, pour in olive oil slowly, until well emulsified. Season with salt, pepper, coriander and a pinch of cayenne.

Make the salad: In a bowl, combine shaved carrots, radishes, and fava beans. Add 3-4 tablespoons of the dressing and mix until the vegetables are well coated. Adjust the seasoning if needed, sprinkle with chives and serve.
