Instructions
Step 1
First you need to prepare the chickpeas. For this salad, sprouted chickpeas are best suited, but if there is no time for germination, then you can boil it. But it is the sprouts that contain a large amount of useful microelements, and it is the sprouted chickpeas that will give the salad a very interesting nutty flavor. The amount of chickpeas should be 1/4 of the total volume of the salad.
Step 2
Take carrots and celery root. You can, if you wish, take celery stalks, it all depends on taste preferences. You need to chop vegetables very thinly. If there is a Korean carrot grater, then you can use it, so the vegetables will be the same size.
Step 3
Prepare other foods for the salad. Chop the herbs finely, squeeze in a garlic press or finely chop the garlic. Take hot pepper, cut it in half and clean the seeds, chop finely. If you adapt the salad for children, then all spicy foods can be excluded from the recipe, while the salad will not lose its taste and benefits.
Step 4
Mix vegetables and herbs with garlic and pepper in a deep bowl. Salt to taste. Squeeze the juice of half a lemon and season the salad. If you wish, you can add some vegetable oil to the salad.
Let the salad stand for an hour to soak the salad and mix the flavors.
