Molake hesaru kaalu kosambari or green gram sprots salad is good for weight loss and is prepared using sprouts, carrot, cucumber, coconut, pomegranate, coriander leaves and green chilli.
I have used pomegranate seeds in this kosambari recipe, which is optional and can be replaced with apple pieces or any other dry fruit pieces. You can even skip it. Also I have added the green chillies while preparing the tempering as rosting green chillies makes it less acidic.
