Ingredients
- 250 grams carrots
- 1 celery stem (- optional)
- ¼ to ½ cup water (- if using a blender)
Method
Prep Carrots
- Rinse the carrots very well in water. Dry them with a clean kitchen towel or allow them to drain naturally, and peel them.
- Rinse the celery stem and dry it naturally or with a clean kitchen towel.
- Chop carrots in small cubes. Chop the celery roughly.
Blender Method
- Add both the carrots and celery to the blender. Add ¼ to ½ cup of water, or as needed. Take care not to add too much water as this will thin the juice. Only add water as required to help the carrot to pulverize in the blender.
- Blend to a smooth and fine puree like consistency, making sure there are no visible small chunks of carrots in the mixture.
- Place a bowl below a fine mesh strainer. Pour the blended carrot mixture onto the strainer to strain the juice.
- With a spoon, press the fiber pulp all over to extract as much juice as possible. Serve the carrot juice that has collected in the bowl immediately.
Juicer Method
- Add the carrot cubes and chopped celery in the feeder tube of your juice and extract the juice.
- Serve the carrot juice immediately.
