Place garlic, ginger in your food processor and mince well. Add the cilantro and process until finely chopped. Add in the spices, lime juice, vinegar, honey and parmesan cheese, mix. With the food processor running, slowly pour the oil through the ‘feed tube’, let process one more minute 1 Minute so that the oil is emulsified into the dressing. Assemble salad ingredients in a large salad bowl, pour dressing over top and mix well.
