Sweet rice salad

Category:

Rice, Salads

Ingredients:

• 2 cups cooked rice
• 1 pink lady apple, finely diced
• 1/4 red onion, finely diced
• 1/2 cup currants
• 1/4 cup chopped unsalted pecan nuts

Dressing:

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 1 tsp curry powder
• 1 tbl brown sugar
• 1 tsp white vinegar

Method:

Mix the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.

In a salad bowl, combine all the salad ingredients. Toss the dressing through just before serving.

Notes:

• I love this salad. It's one of my favourites and it's a great contrast to the green salads, Caesar salad and potato salad. This one gets compliments and is lovely for lunch. It's got crunch and substance, sweet and sour.
• You can use white or brown rice for this recipe - I prefer brown but only had white last time I made it.
