Today my son has a long day at University, which means I will have lunch by myself. Cooking for myself alone is not very tempting. This is why I decided to make a salad as a one dish meal. Like I’ve mentioned in previous posts, I believe salad is a very free plate, something you should have fun with. So, I decided to prepare a salad with rice to be consistent and light meal.
Simple and easy.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup rice
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
- 1 tomato, cut in medium sized pieces
- 1 carrot grated
- 1 green pepper cut into thin strips
- 1/4 cup mix of olive oil and apple vinegar, a dash of hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper for the dressing salad
- 1 small onion sliced and separated into rings
- 1/2 teaspoon dried mint
Preparation:
- In a small saucepan, place the rice with water, salt, curry and vegetable oil and bring to boil
- Reduce the heat, stirring from time to time, cover and let it simmer until the rice is cooked
- Place rice in a plate and let it cool to room temperature
- Add tomato, carrot, green pepper
- Season with the dressing and garnish with onion and dried mint
ET VOILA..C’EST TOUT:)
