How ½ cup of grated carrot works out
One US cup of grated carrot weighs 110 grams, so multiply by 0.5 to get half a cup: 110 × 0.5 = 55 g. In the other direction, 55 g of grated carrot divided by 110 brings you back to ½ cup.
If you have no scales, ½ cup is 8 level tablespoons of grated carrot (24 teaspoons), because a US cup holds 16 tablespoons. In a 250 ml metric cup — the Australian, New Zealand and modern UK standard — the same fraction is 58.1 g.
Tip: Note whether a recipe says packed or loosely packed grated carrot; pressing it into the cup can add half as much again by weight.
