Rasa Salad
This salad is perfect for summer, providing both filling and nourishing benefits. The beans used in this recipe are not just any ordinary peas - they are packed with nutrients and high in fibre, making them ideal for reducing inflammation and fighting off anaemia. For those concerned about bloating, Ayurveda has a solution. By coating the beans in healthy oils and spices, the light and airy qualities associated with beans can be preserved without causing discomfort.
