Why you’ll love this

A crunchy, protein-rich salad combining sprouts and moringa for a filling, nutritious meal — perfect for post-workout or a healthy lunch.

Ingredients

  • Mixed sprouts (moong, chana) – 1.5 cups (about 200 g)
  • Moringa powder – 1 tsp (5 g)
  • Cucumber – ½, diced
  • Tomato – 1 medium, chopped
  • Grated carrot – ½ cup
  • Spring onion – 2 tbsp, chopped
  • Roasted peanuts – 2 tbsp
  • Olive oil – 1 tbsp
  • Lemon juice – 1.5 tbsp
  • Salt, pepper, chaat masala – to taste

Step-by-step

  1. Step 1: If sprouts are raw, steam or lightly sauté them for 2–3 minutes and let cool. (If already sprouted and tender, use raw.)
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl combine sprouts, cucumber, tomato, grated carrot and spring onion.
  3. Step 3: Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, moringa powder, salt, pepper and chaat masala until smooth; pour over salad.
  4. Step 4: Toss well, sprinkle roasted peanuts on top for crunch and extra protein. Serve immediately.

Pro tips

  • Lightly toss sprouts on high heat for a minute to remove raw taste while keeping crunch.
  • Add boiled quinoa or paneer cubes to increase protein further.
  • Use fresh moringa leaves (blanched) if available for texture variation.

FAQs

Can I eat sprouts raw in this salad?
