Indian style Raw onion relish
I was looking for some condiments and side dishes for the raw cashew curry and realised loads of Indian food is raw any way so posted this for your dining pleasure. It couldnt be more simple and rest assured the rinsing of the onion takes away it harsh qualities and leaves it quite pungent and sweet. The optional ingredients make an altogether sexier version of this already lovely dish.
recipe:
3 medium-sized onions, preferably red
1 green chili, seeded and sliced
Juice of 1 lemon,or lime or 2 teaspoons cider vinegar
1/2 tsp agave
macrobiotic salt to taste
Optional:
2 to 3 tablespoons shelled unsalted pistachios, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons finely chopped cilantro leaves
Method:
Peel the onions and cut them in thin slices You can use a spiraliser to get super thin threads. Separate and wash onion in several changes of cold water, giving them a gentle squeeze. Be careful not to squeeze the shreds too hard, or you may crush them. Put them in a bowl, add chili, and sprinkle them with lemon juice or vinegar, and salt and other optional ingredients, toss. You may serve immediately or let the flavours develop for an hour or so.
