Mango-Chickpeas Salad



I like chickpeas, so the other day I cooked some chickpeas for evening tea and wanted to do something other than the usual Chickpeas sundal. As I was gazing through my refrigerator looking for inspiration to add to my chickpeas, a bag of frozen mangoes caught my eyes. The poor thing has been sitting in the freezer since last summer and I decided to give it a try with my chickpeas. The result was great. Hope you like this simple, healthy and refreshing salad. 

Ingredients:

  • Mango - 1 cup, diced. (Fresh or frozen. Thaw frozen mango before using)
  • Chickpeas - 1 1/2 cups cooked (Add a little salt while cooking the chickpeas)
  • Onion - 1/2, diced
  • Red pepper (capsicum) - 1/2 diced
  • lemon juice - from 1/2
  • Salt -1/2 tsp or to taste. 
  • Dry red chili flakes - to taste
Steps:
  • Combine all the ingredients together.
  • Add salt carefully as the cooked chickpeas has salt already added. 
  • Refrigerate for a while before serving.
  • You can always add more or less of each ingredient to your liking.
