Ingredients:
For the salad:
2 apples , chopped or thinly sliced
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice
4 medium sized tomatoes, chopped or sliced into thin rounds
1 small cucumber, chopped or sliced into thin rounds
200 gm pan-grilled paneer cubes (with a tsp of olive oil)
2 to 3 tbsp chopped walnuts, lightly toasted
For the orange-mint dressing:
1/4 cup orange juice
½ tsp garlic paste
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp mint cut into strips
salt and pepper to taste
Method:
Prepare the dressing.
In a small glass bow, whisk the orange juice and olive oil till well emulsified. Add the mint, salt and pepper. Mix again and refrigerate till required, if not serving the salad immediately.
Pan-grill the paneer cubes.Heat one tsp of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan. Turn down the heat to medium and add the paneer cubes. Toss frequently till all the paneer cubes are uniformly grilled to a light brown colour. Remove to a plate and allow to cool.
In the meanwhile, cut the apples and toss them in the lemon juice to prevent them from changing colour. Cut the tomatoes and cucumber into desired shapes and size.
Add the dressing and mix well so the pieces are coated with the dressing. Sprinkle the walnuts and serve immediately. Alternatively, do not add the walnuts but allow the salad to marinate in the dressing for about half an hour. Add the walnuts just before serving.
