Monday Salad: Pomello Salad

Sarah (my sister) introduced this salad to us when dining at a restaurant in Bombay. We have loved it ever since, "copied" the essence of this salad to simplify it to make it at home and love to make it as well!



It's easy, absolutely delicious and it's finished in just a few steps. This also looks really attractive with the pink of the grapefruit, the green of the spring onions and the white of the cashew nuts all comes together really well.

Ingredients:

1 grapefruit
2 spring onions chopped (the green part only)
1/2 cup cashew nuts
1/2 cup oil (to fry the cashewnuts)

For the sauce:
1 tbsp Soya Sauce
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tbsp sugar or honey
1/4 tsp red chili powder

Method:
Take the oil and fry the cashew nuts. Cashew nuts need to be supervised when frying. You need to keep stirring them and the moment they start turning golden brown you need to take them off, drain out the oil and put the cashew nuts on a paper towel.
Mix all the ingredients for the sauce together and keep aside
Take the fleshy fruit part of the grapefruit and place it in a bowl
Mix in the spring onions and cashew nuts and top with the dressing
Serve immediately

this Salad doesn't store very well so make only as much as you want to eat at that point. This is good for around 4 people having it as an appetizer
