Green apple salad tastes slightly tart, slightly sweet and slightly hot, a delightful combination. More importantly with a crisp bite to it, this salad ends up being a side dish in itself.

- 1 tablespoon powder of roasted peanuts
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 dash turmeric
- 1 thai chile pepper diced fine (optional)

Directions
- Step 1
Squeeze out liquid from grated Granny Smith apple. No need to peel the apple skin as the flecks of skin will provide nice color contrast to the apple flesh.
- Step 2
In a bowl mix the grated apple, peanut powder, lime juice and salt. If you cannot have peanuts, substitute with same proportion of almond powder. No need to toast almonds before use.
- Step 3
In a small pan heat oil. Add mustard seeds and cover the pan with a lid as mustard seeds will start popping. Once the popping stops, add turmeric and chile pieces and turn the heat off. Pour this seasoned oil over the apple mixture.
- Step 4
Apart from providing a rich golden color to the salad, the seasoned oil brings all the ingredients to a homogeneous whole.
- Step 5
Make this salad right before eating.
