this is yummy, i don't make it exactly as written, but use it as a guideline. i use raw fresh peas most of the time, and add less mayo and more curry powder. nice tangy crunchy salad! -
I also found a version of this recipe on the website, Simply Recipes. The version I used is a bit different in that smoked almonds are used (they are rinsed to remove some of the salt). The salad is really very tasty. I didn't add water chesnuts to mine as I don't like them so cut back a bit on the mayo.
