Cumin, Coriander and Balti Curry season this delicious vegetarian black-eyed pea salad. The peas can be substituted with another legume if desired, and the amounts of vegetables and dressing ingredients can always be altered to personal preference. Enjoy this healthy salad with buttered crusty sourdough, or as a wrap. It's wonderful served over baked potatoes or stuffed into pita pockets, too.
