Fresh fruits, crisp veggies, sprouted kambu, and a zesty dressing — this bowl is light, nourishing, and full of natural sweetness.
This Pearl Millet Salad brings together sprouted kambu (pearl millet), crisp fruits, fresh veggies, and soft paneer for a bowl that is naturally sweet, crunchy, and nutritionally rich. Light yet filling, it’s the perfect anytime meal — especially when you want something refreshing, wholesome, and full of colour.
Sprouted pearl millet is rich in fibre, iron, and plant protein, making this salad deeply nourishing and gut-friendly. Fruits add natural sweetness and antioxidants, while raw paneer offers clean protein and calcium. With healthy fats from optional peanut butter and vitamin-rich capsicum, this bowl supports energy, digestion, and immunity — all in one vibrant serving.
In a wide mixing bowl, add cooked pearl millet, apple, green apple, pear, pomegranate, capsicum, onion, and tomato.
Gently mix in the paneer cubes.
Whisk together lemon juice, oregano, salt, and pepper. If using peanut butter, dilute with a little warm water and whisk into the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine. Serve immediately for best freshness and crunch.
Serving Suggestion: Perfect as a mid-morning meal, travel-friendly lunch, or a light dinner. Tastes best when served chilled.
Add sweet corn for extra crunch.
For more protein, mix in a spoon of roasted seeds.
Add a few mint leaves for a refreshing flavour.
Replace paneer with tofu for a vegan option.
Boil the sprouted millet until soft but not mushy.
