Over this one month, I have tried so many dressings, but I realized there wasn't an authentic Indian dressing there.
Yes, I agree that Indian salads do not really have dressings except for lemon juice, if at all. But what I wanted to create was a dressing which only had Indian flavours.
And that's how this brilliant dressing was born.
You can marinade the cottage cheese in this dressing for 2-4 hr before cooking or you can choose to simply coat the cubes in the dressing and grill it. Alternately you can also use tofu to vegan-ize this salad.
