Suprisingly good! Works very well along with a heavier main. Can be adapted to whatever you have on hand. I used red chillies for example.

I kept the maple syrup in this recipe and we all enjoyed the sprightly, refreshing salad. This isn’t a Queen of Flavor salad, instead this simple concoction would go well with a wide variety of mains, and for that I can see making it often, although I’d prefer to tap into my regular jar of pickled red onions than bother with the shallots.

This is a very delicious salad that can go well as a side dish that requires a green salad. The dressing is amazing. Certainly a keeper.

excellent salad that goes with a lot of different things, one I keep coming back to. I usually skip the spring onions and prefer this with mint and coriander and 1 chili. I agree two is a lot (for the green chilies I usually have).

This was a good salad with a wonderful dressing. Ixta did not specify the type of green chilis, so I cut up some Serrano. Using two would have been way too hot. I loved all the elements and it was well received. Served along with the skirt steak recipe.
