Yes, we mak this sometimes without the til garnish, but adding more veggies. Yummy.
ReplyDeleteWow! The salad looks so inviting! I love the Indian carrots or so called Delhi carrots. they are so brightly coloured and so juicy. I love the addition of raisins. It takes the healthy quotient further up.
ReplyDeleteAdding basil to the dressing is a nice twist, I also add peanuts to this salad..

I like the dressing, so simple, yet so refreshing!
ReplyDeleteAny particular reason or using dark raisins or can we sub with golden ones?
Toasted & copped walnuts will make a great addition, don't u think?
You may even use golden raisins. I used black for the contrast looks. Addition of walnuts is also a great idea. Thank you so much Manasi!!!
