Pea salad with vegetables and spices A rather unusual, but very successful combination of vegetables, chickpeas and spices. The sharp taste of the salad balances the oily avocado and potatoes, the chickpea gives a nutty pea taste, the tomato is sour, the pepper is sweet, and the cucumber and parsley are fresh.
As you probably already noticed in the recipe there is no mayonnaise or butter, which is so often used as a dressing for salads. This salad is in its own juice, which appears thanks to the juice of lemon, sugar and salt. Salad is well combined with Chapati and Sabji. Ingredients:- Chickpeas (chick peas) 200 g
