Peanut Butter Salad


"To remember a successful salad is generally to remember a successful dinner; at all events, the perfect dinner necessarily includes the perfect salad."
George Ellwanger
So for the perfect salad combination of veggies, hung curd and peanut butter one should definitely  try the the "Healthy salad" posted by Ritu Duggal on her blog  original recipe
                             As
"Man cannot live by bread alone. Every once in a while he needs a salad."
Woody Allen 


Low carb Modifications

I adapted the recipe to make it low carb hence limited the veggies to chopped cabbage, carrot, capsicum and onion (around 400 gms in total). 
With seasonings remaining the same -
chaat masala
black pepper
chilly flakes/ chilli powder
salt to taste
a pinch of garlic and ginger powder
Oregano

*Slight changes of orange juice to lime juice (half a lime or less)
*Increasing the quantity of peanut butter to 1 tablespoon
*Hung curd to 2 to 3 Tbsp 
*Honey to maple syrup
 We have tried various versions with and without the sticky sweetner and both are equally good.  

Method 

*Blend peanut butter+ Hung Curd+ Seasonings(except oregano) 
*Add lime juice, olive oil and sticky sweetener to the blended dressing and mix or blend again. 
*Add a pinch of salt to the veggies before adding the dressing. 
*Add the dressing, mix well 
*Top it with some oregano, seeds, nuts and olives.

Serve cold 🥶
