I had a pack of karamani, or the red beans waiting for my attention. So I decided to try a wholesome healthy salad, which would double up as my evening snack too....These days I have become a big fan of lettuce leaves and am now eager to try most salad dressings available in NTUC. I liked the Kraft dressings very much ..just a perfect blend of herbs..some with tofu pieces soaked in olive oil ...hmmmmm
Ingredients
Red beans 1 cup
Tomatoes 1 big chopped
Onion 1 medium chopped
Lettuce leaves 1/2 a cup chopped
Coriander leaves 1/4 cup
peanuts roasted and crushed 1/4 cup
Lime juice/salad dressing 2 tbspn
Salt
Chaat Masala 1/2 tspn
Fruits (optional)
Soak red beans(karamani) overnight.Pressure cook the red beans to 3 whistles.Strain the water from the beans and set aside. Chop onion, tomatoes, corainder leaves, lettuce leaves. You can include few fruits of your choice. I had apples and grapes. So i chopped them and added to my salad.
Take a bowl and add in the chopped vegs, fruits and the cooked beans. Add salt, chat masala. You can now add lime juice or any salad dressing to this. Toss well and keep in refrigerator for about 10 minutes. Just before you serve you can add crushed peanuts as a garnish. For salad lovers this is a true treat. Can be a superb afternoon or evening snack.
