PAD THAI INSPIRED BLACK RICE SALAD
Ingredienti

150 g Riso Gallo Nero Black Rice

300 g water

200 g cooked prawns – feel
free to swap the protein

1 large carrot – diced

1 small courgette – diced

½ red onion – diced

½ mango diced

Honey roasted peanuts – to
taste

Handful of coriander or Thai
basil – optional

S&P to taste

For the Thai dressing:

2 cloves of garlic – peeled
and grated (I used freeze dry garlic 1tsp)

2 Thai or red chillies – or
adjust to your palate

1 ½ tbsp fish sauce

1 ½ tsp soft brown sugar

3 ½ tbsp of lime juice – or
lemon juice

1 cm ginger stem - grated

Preparazione

Cook your rice by following the instructions on the pack.

Whilst the rice is cooking, prepare your dressing, by placing all ingredients in a food processor and blend until all combined. You may need to add some water, don’t be shy and follow your instinct.

Assemble the Salad: In the same bowl, add the cooked and cooled rice, vegetables and prawns and combine.

Arrange and Garnish: divide the salad and finish off by adding the mango, the coriander roughly chopped and top with the crunchy peanuts.

Serve: Pour the dressing to taste and adjust with S&P before enjoying with a cold drink.

Tips (if any):

Swap protein for different flavours. This is such a quick meal and you can use leftover chicken for instance or try an alternative instead.

Adjust the dressing to your taste and play with flavour combinations, for example add some lemongrass.

Perfect as a side or a quick main dish.
