When you have abundant supply of home-grown Bell fruits in Summer, you tend to use it in anything and everything for sure π
Bell fruit has many names like Java apple, Wax apple, Water apple, Syzygium, Jambi fruit or Jambu nerale. I normally prefer to use local, easily available and pesticide free stuffs as much as possible. I have shared the juice recipe before and now I am sharing one salad or commonly known as Kosambari in our local term. Which is βno onion and no garlicβ and ideal for any fasting or festivities.
Ingredients:
Carrots β 2 (red or normal)
Bell fruit β 10 β 12
Salt
Raw mango or lemon β as needed
Grated coconut β 2 table spoons
Coriander leaves β 1 table spoon (chopped)
Seasoning:
Coconut oil β 1 tea spoon
Mustard β 1 tsp
Hing β ΒΌ tsp
Green chilli β 1 or 2
Curry leaves β 1 spring
Method:
-Grate carrots, chop bell fruits into very small chunks.
-If you are using raw mango, grate and add or else use lemon juice.
-Mix in coconut, coriander leaves, salt.
-Now prepare seasoning, heat oil, splutter mustard, add chopped green chillies, curry leaves fry for a min and add it to the salad bowl and mix everything and check once.
– Serve as a salad or as a Kosambari /side dish for lunch.
