This recipe brings together two nutritious ingredients - broccoli and chickpeas as a raw salad. While broccoli is a storehouse of essential vitamins and minerals, chickpeas are a great source of protein and fibre! Here, we have used raw broccoli, you could choose to steam them retaining slight crunch!

  • Lemon juice: 1 tbsp or as per taste
  • Rock salt: as per taste
  • Broccoli crowns: 3
  • Cashew: 100 gms (soaked for 2-4 hours)

Method

  • Wash the broccoli crowns and red bell pepper thoroughly and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
  • In a large bowl, place the cooked chickpeas, red bell pepper and broccoli.
  • Sprinkle lemon juice along with salt and pepper.
  • Blend soaked cashew to get cashew cream and add to the mixing bowl. Give a thorough mix.
