Best Indian No Cook Salad Recipes

No cook Indian salad consisting of raw veggies, tossed with lime juice and salt, served in a small Indian silver wok
(Updated Version)

I’m a huge fan of salads - how about you? I enjoy a variety of salads (AVOCADO TOFU SALAD), and Indian salads? They’re refreshing, crunchy, spicy, and tangy. While salads, in general, are healthy, Indian salads take it up a notch. 


When I used to host gatherings, Indian salads were always a hit because they’re so easy to prepare: just slice or cut the ingredients, which are both accessible and affordable. You can prepare them in advance, store them in the fridge, and serve them chilled or at room temperature. Isn’t that a fantastic way to entertain, rather than spending hours stir-frying vegetables (ZESTY MALAY OKRA SALAD).

Besides the classic Indian Kachumber Salad, I'll share some creative variations you can try with similar ingredients. The key is to make your Kachumber Salad stand out - be unique and different from the standard ones. Infuse it with your own flair and personality (TURKISH CARROT YOGURT SALAD).

 

Note: I’ll provide the main ingredients, but feel free to customize the seasoning and herbs to your taste.
