Serving suggestions

  • Using chat puri: Take the salad in a medium sized plate, place chat puris poked around the edges of the plate and serve.
    10 chat puris
  • Using pani puri: Crack the top of the puri, fill each puri with the salad and serve.
    10 pani puris
  • Using cucumbers: Cut cucumbers into half & then lengthwise. scoop out the seeds & soft pulp from each half, and you will have 4 boat shaped pieces from each cucumber. Fill salad in each cucumber boat and serve.
    2 cucumbers

Notes

  1. If green apple is unavailable, replace it with red apple & it will taste equally good.
  2. I have provided 3 suggestions for serving the salad, but it may be had as is and it tastes very good.
