  1. I took this to a party. There was none left in the bowl after the party. Everybody liked it. It is really colorful. I used parsley instead of cilantro.
     
  2. Very nice salad. Made half the recipe. I sliced the carrots very thin but still enough to give a crunch. Also I discarded the seeds of the cucumber and cut it into half moons. This is certainly a salad I will make again. Thanks for posting. Made for India -- More Than Just Curries Tag Game -- March 2010.
     
  3. Can't believe I have never rated this salad. Love it, make it to go along with curries and other Indian food. Delicious complement to those types of dishes. Will continue to make again.
     
  4. What a delicious salad! I loved the use of cilantro & rice vinegar. It made a veggie salad into something special & this one will go into my keeper file. I added some sugar and cauliflower florets. Next time I will either blanch the carrots or slice them paper thin on a mandolin. I felt they would have been better a tad less firm. Thabnk you for sharing the recipe!
     
  5. I love this salad! Different from any other recipe I have.

<p>I love cooking and trying different foods, but my favorite cookbooks are now Weight Watchers or low fat/low cal cookbooks as I tend to try and make low fat/low cal recipes. I lost over 90 pounds on Weight Watchers and have maintained for over a year now -- so my cooking/eating habits have changed drastically following my weight loss and to keep it off!</p>
