Guava, Mulberry and Maple Salad

This is a really easy salad/dessert to make with very few ingredients. I added a couple of broken down pieces of my flaxseed chikki for added crunch. Flaxseed chikki is really easy to make – just melt some jaggery or brown sugar in a pan. Let cool for 5 minutes. Add the flax seeds. Stir well. Transfer to a flat bottomed pan and cut into diamond shaped or square pieces and let it set till it’s a solid mass.

  1. I never had mulberries ... are they like blackberries? And the guava was white/yellow? I've only had pink guava! I wonder if they taste the same??? Thanks for sharing!

  2. I dont think we get blackberries here, so can't say whether they taste the same as blackberries. But you can't go wrong with any berry - they're all so good!

    My guava was green on the outside and white/yellow flesh inside. We get those pinky ones too. If you have those, use those - they'll make a much prettier salad.
