Рецепт Rice and Nut Salad
This recipe is a really versatile one. It can serve as a hot rice dish, but we use it as a savory, cold salad. Either way, it is a delicious dish that you can make ahead and serve as a side or take it hot off the stove, mix it up and serve it warm as part of your main course.
Ингредиенты
- 2 cups cooked brown rice, cooled
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 cup chopped sweet onion
- 3/4 cup tomato puree

- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
- 1/3 cup chopped, toasted walnuts
- 2 cups fresh veggies (tomato, celery, red bell pepper) chopped
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Инструкции

- at least two hours (best if over night). This removes some of
- the moisture.

- but not brown. Add the tomato puree, mint, allspice and cumin
- Let stand until cooled to room temperature.
- Stir in the walnuts and rice. Add the lemon juice and mix thoroughly. Let stand for at least 30 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Add the chopped veggies and toss gently just prior to serving.
