["Cut the mango into matchsticks Take the slightly sour and sturdy ones. Shave the brussel sprouts as well as the white part of fennel and the sliced onions. Leave it aside for the dressing.", "For the dressing - Grind the fennel seeds into a fine powder into a grinder or I prefer a mortar and pestle, and roast the cumin and grind that too separately. In fact I keep both these things handy for lot of other cooking , so I usually have them on hand whenever I need it. Once you are ready to assemble the salad, prepare the dressing.", "Take cumin powder, fennel powder, cayenne pepper, salt and Jaggery or if using sugar then take sugar and mix it well and add lemon juice to it. If you are using jaggery you will need to mix it well till the jaggery melts. It is a small amount of jaggery so it won't take time to melt and be merry with other ingredients.", "When it is time to serve the salad, prior to that ,simply assemble everything and drizzle the dressing on the salad and serve with a pinch of chaat masala and garnish it with fennel seeds if you wish.", "We love having this particular salad with Dal and rice. It is a great accompaniment. But, you can also enjoy it like a salsa with naan chips or corn chips.

It is slightly tart, sweet and gets kick from using cayenne. Any of these things you can use more or less to your preference. Hope you enjoy it ."]
