Eye appealing salads are always a hit with balance of texture, taste and with a strong health quotient they become a complete meal by itself. Salads are a must and most suitable during these hot summer days.I love to have salads chilled and crispy.

even some roasted peanuts for extra crunch and texture. My son loves raw mangoes more than anything so have put lots of it in this salad. You can add pomegranate seeds, boiled potatoes or even some veggies and the list goes on.I have not added lemon juice if you want you can add and for more spiciness you can add some chopped green chillies.I have many salad recipes in my blog please check my Lebanese tabbouleh salad, watermelon lettuce salad, cucumber salad, chickpea salad and potato salad.

Notes

If you want to get long sprouts leave it for longer then you get longer sprouts.
The sprouts should be steamed for short time only so that colour and nutrients are intact.
I have not added lemon juice if you want you can add and for more spiciness you can add some chopped green chillies.
The ingredients added can be anything that will go with the salad it may be some chopped cucumber some pomegranate or even boiled potatoes.
