Method
Use a vegetable peeler to peel courgettes and carrots into strips, (you may find that once you get to the seedy core of the courgette its tricky to peel so you can leave and utilise in another recipe). Place the strips of carrot and courgette in a bowl with the seeds and pour the vinegar and oil over, sprinkle paprika, salt and pepper over and stir well. Salad will keep in fridge for up to 3 days.
Zero Waste Tips
