Ingredients

Servings

For the Rice Salad

  • 1 1/2 cups black rice
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil toasted
  • 3/4 cup golden raisins
  • 3 scallions finely sliced
  • 3 cups red cabbage half a small head, chopped
  • 1/2 cup peanuts roasted
  • 1 cilantro or a mix of all 3, packed cup roughly torn, or mint or basil leaves

For the dressing:

  • 1/4 cup lime juice (about 2 limes)
  • 3 tablespoons fish sauce (or soy sauce, if vegetarian)
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil toasted
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil neutral
  • 2 tablespoons honey (or agave syrup, if vegan)

Instructions

  1. Rinse the rice under cold water for about 2 to 3 minutes (to stop it from sticking), then cook it according to the package directions (usually about 20 min). When the rice is tender, transfer it to a bowl, stir in the sesame oil and raisins and allow the rice to cool. In a separate small bowl, stir the dressing ingredients together and set it aside.
  2. Add scallions, red cabbage, peanuts and herbs and toss to combine. Give the dressing another stir and pour half of it over the rice salad and toss again. Taste the salad, and add more dressing, if desired. Lay the rice salad onto a platter. Serve, with the extra dressing on the side for drizzling.
