Notes
- You can prepare and mix the veggies(except cucumber) and refrigerate ahead of serving. Add dressing only when ready to serve.
- I have used green chilies here as I could not source Thai Red Chillies due to the current lockdown.
- Instead of brown sugar or jaggery powder you can add raw cane sugar, maple syrup or honey (then it won't be vegan salad).
- Lemon can be substituted with rice vinegar.
- For those who peanut allergy, you can substitute with salted and roasted cashewnuts.
