The dish comprises of Grilled Mango chilli sauce, Tabouleh Salad, cheese stuffed Falafel and tazatziki dip...
Instead of pineapple chilli sauce I have paired the combo with grilled mango chilli sauce.
For the Tabouleh Pomegranate juice is used instead of cranberry juice. Quantity of the ingredients I have altered slightly according to my taste.
Falafel are stuffed with basic combination of cheddar and mozzarella. Pickled chillies are excluded as I have kept the falafels quite spicy.
For the tazatziki I have tried to keep it on Indian side as chef has mentioned.
Trust me the combo was undoubtedly amazinggg and delicious. It totally served as a complete starter.
As far as the nutritional factors are concerned, the Lebanese food comprises of ingredients those are rich in antioxidants, multiple vitamins, proteins, a range of good amino acids etc.
The dish looks so eye-catching that no one can resist from eating it. The ingredients are Soo colourful and attractive.
