The tamarind dressing was a bit too thick for my liking. I would have preferred a thinner, more pourable dressing.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a more savory dressing.

I'm not a huge fan of tamarind, but I really enjoyed this dish. The dressing was well-balanced and not too sour.

This dish was a hit! The tamarind dressing was tangy and sweet, and it paired perfectly with the juicy cherry tomatoes. I added a bit of extra chili pepper for a little spice, and it was delicious.
