Sweet Lime Salad - BBC Good Food India
Sweet lime, jalapeƱo and mint salad in pani puri shells. This is quite a nice summer salad: light, tangy and fruity. As a readers contribution I pimped if for the June edition of the BBC Good Food India magazine. The original recipe and my tweaks feature on page 6 of the magazine, given below is my recipe of the same, hope you like it, enjoy!
Som Tum
Som Tum or Som Tam is the most famous salad out of South East Asia, there are different versions of this in Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and the one we’re making today is Thai style. It combines the five basic flavours, sour, spicy, salty, savoury and sweet, all the elements bring out these flavours brilliantly. The Thai recipes vary according to regions, some use dried shrimp while others use salted crab meat, in this version we’re going to use dried shrimp. I’m sure you’re going to like this, enjoy!
Chicken Salad Sandwich




A chicken salad is the one thing that should be in everyone’s refrigerator, it’s easy, lasts a couple of days and makes a perfect snack or meal in minutes. The health conscious may deem this to be unhealthy but you can use low fat mayonnaise, egg-less soy mayo, so personally I love having this in my house. The whole idea of this salad is using leftover chicken, especially from a roast. There are many ways to making a chicken salad, this one’s mine so I hope you like it, enjoy!
