Mom used to prepare this salad often when I was in school .This salad was one of the very few dishes that would not require mom's coaxing to get it in!In spite of being a veggie hater during those days ,this one never failed to tempt me -both the taste and the simplicity .

This can be whipped up in a moment and tastes best with Chapathi.This simple salad goes to Sudeshna's Carnival of Salads and to Divya's Show me your salad event
I used:
Carrot -1 ,grated
Lemon juice - to taste
Salt to taste
Seasoning:
Oil- 1 teaspoon
Mustard-1/2 a teaspoon
Jeera/Cumin seeds -1/2 a teaspoon
Urad dhal-1/2 a teaspoon

Coriander leaves to garnish
- Place the grated carrot in a bowl and add lemon juice,salt.Mix well.
- Heat oil in a small pan and put in all the ingredients under 'seasonings'.
- When the mustard splutters and dhal turns brown,pour over the salad.
- Mix well and serve garnished with coriander leaves.
