1 Tbsp (15 g) crispy chili oil, plus more to taste
Directions:
1. Prep the cucumber, cilantro, and peanuts. Transfer to a bowl along with the sesame seeds. 2. Add all of the dressing ingredients to a small bowl and mix. 3. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss*. Let sit for at least 10 minutes for the flavours to infuse and for the cucumber to soften slightly . 4. Taste test and adjust the seasoning as desired. Plate, drizzle over the chili oil, and garnish with more cilantro, peanuts, and sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
Add more water if a thinner consistency is desired. Note, though, that the cucumber will release some liquid as it sits in the dressing.
Storage
Best on the day it's made, but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.

“This is an interpretation of the way I look at today’s eating habits and trends. Chaat masala is readily available in every grocery in India. When I first combined chaat with balsamic vinegar and honey, the chaat went to another level. You can substitute any kind of beans and lentils and cauliflower can replace the broccoli." – Ratnani
