I absolutely love this salad and often make it as a side for my curry dishes. What’s more, my dad who hates salad loves it too. Lazy tip of the day, if short on time it still works well without frying some of the onions

The most delicious combination ever, and absolutely stunning array of flavours. This is definitely one of my very favourite Spicery dinners made to date. The balance of flavours was exquisite, and the chicken melted off the chicken leg bones. The cucumber kerabu was amazing and the best accompaniment, and the salt and heat of the sambal set the whole dish off. This will definitely be a regular dinner in our house.
