Broccoli Slaw Koshimbeer


This simple salad dressing of roasted peanut powder, lemon juice and seasonings comes very handy to try on any veggies - especially relatively unknown veggies. I have used it from jicama to broccoli slaw with very favorable ratings.
Broccoli Slaw chi Koshimbeer
Broccoli Salad

Hi this sounds great. What kind of oil do you normally use? I am absolutely in LOVE with Indian food. It is the only food that makes me feel intoxicated.
