This is an easy to make family favourite given to me by my mother years ago. A delicious, high fibre way to include more brown rice in your diet. It improves on standing so if I'm wanting to take it to a BBQ or pot luck dinner, I'll make it the day before then chill it over night. The brown rice gives it a lovely nutty, chewy texture in a sweet sour dressing. Everyone will be coming back for more and want the recipe. Enjoy! Ingredients:
2 cups brown rice (uncooked) |
4 stalks celery (finely chopped) |
1 red bell pepper (finely chopped) |
1 yellow bell pepper (finely chopped) |
1 cup roasted unsalted peanuts |
1/2 cup olive oil |
4 tablespoons honey |
2 teaspoons curry powder |
2/3 cup vinegar |
4 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 cup currants |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Cook brown rice in 4 cups of water using the absorption method then cool.
2. Simmer dressing ingredients for 5 minutes adding the currents after 3 minutes then cool
3. Fold dressing through rice.
4. Add finely chopped celery, capsicum and peanuts to the brown rice once cooled.
5. Chill before serving.
