What's cooking? Tamarind - Chickpea Salad

This is a super easy and delicious salad to impress you loved ones with! A little different from the usual salads, this one brings the tanginess from the tamarind, the softness from the chickpeas and a little sweetness from the onions to create a beautiful side dish that not just easy to prepare but also really healthy!

Ingredients:

1 can cooked chickpeas

1 small onion, sliced and than soaked in salty water

1 small cucumber, diced

1 small tomato, diced

1 potato, boiled, peeled, and diced

1/2 cup of tamarind sauce

salt, pepper

Instructions:

1. Place the already cooked chickpeas into a pot with the tamarind sauce. Cook together until tamarind sauce is evaporated.
2. Slice the onion into thin slices, and dice the cucumber, tomato and already boiled and peeled potato.
3. Once the chickpeas absorbed the tamarind sauce, mix all the ingredients in a bowl.
4. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve as a side dish for around 3 - 4 people.

Serve this yummy salad with anything you like. I absolutely adore this on the BBQ table. It also pairs well with rice dishes.
