Radish Salad with Peanut-coriander dressing















Yeah! One of those days when you feel like having a hearty salad with zesty dressing. Well that's what I came up with last month, but was too lazy to post it. When my sister-in-law was here, she was amazed to see that we get mooli(radish) here, so this was one of the salads I made to impress her.

Ingredients:
Daikon radish(mooli) - 1 medium, peeled and sliced thin
English cucumbers(or any cucumber) - 2 medium, peeled and sliced
Carrots - 2 medium, peeled and sliced
Lettuce - 1 cup, washed and finely chopped
Coriander for garnish - few sprigs, washed

Dressing:
Roasted peanuts - 1 tbsp
Coriander - 1/2 cup, washed and finely chopped
Green chilli - 1, chopped
Lime juice - 2 tsp
Cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Yogurt - 1 cup
Blend together all the above dressing ingredients in a blender and make a smooth puree and refrigerate.

In a salad tray arrange all the salad veggies and cover till ready to serve. When you are ready to serve the salad, drizzle the dressing and top with coriander for garnish. Enjoy!
