10 minutes
Chickpea and fresh vegetable salad is a vibrant and nutritious dish from Indian cuisine that combines the freshness of greens with the rich nutty flavor of chickpeas. Its history originates from the traditions of Indian gastronomy, where legumes play a key role. Crunchy romaine lettuce leaves, juicy tomatoes, and sweet peppers create a harmonious blend of textures, while the spiciness of garlic and the aroma of green onions add depth to the flavor. The dressing made from olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar gives the dish a soft sweet-sour note. This salad is perfect as a light standalone dish or as a side to Indian snacks. It refreshes, satisfies, and delights with its rich flavors.
