Wehani Rice And Mango Salad Recipes

MANGO-CUCUMBER RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the rice and cook, stirring until tender, 25 to 35 minutes (depending on the rice blend).
• Meanwhile, bring a separate saucepan of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the quinoa and cook until tender, about 12 minutes.
• Drain the grains and rinse under cold water until cool; shake off the excess water.
• Whisk the lime juice and zest, the peanut oil, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste in a large bowl. Add the rice mixture, mango, cucumber, jalapeno, scallions, cilantro and peanuts and stir to combine. Season with salt.

MANGO AND COCONUT RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Start by cooking the rice. Put the jasmine rice and butter in a small saucepan and place on a medium heat. Add a little salt, the water and half the Thai basil (keep the leaves attached to the stalk). Bring to the boil, then cover and cook on a slow simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and discard the basil. Spread out the rice on a flat tray to cool down.
• Cook the red rice in plenty of boiling water (as you would cook pasta but with no salt) for 20 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Drain and spread on a tray to cool down.
• Pick off the leaves of the remaining basil and chop them up roughly. Place them in a large mixing bowl. Add the jasmine and red rice together with all the remaining ingredients, apart from the shallots, and stir just to mix; do not stir too much or the mango pieces will disintegrate. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Transfer the salad into serving bowls and garnish with crisp-fried shallots, if you like.

WILD RICE AND MANGO SALAD

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to directions.
• Add the chopped peppers, red onion and cucumber.
• Vinaigrette: Combine the lemon juice, honey, sesame oil, garlic, chili flakes. Add to the rice/vegetable mixture and chill.

CHICKEN, MANGO, AND RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Cook rice until done, and rinse with cold water.
• Coat chicken with 1 tbs. of the oil and season with 1/4 teaspoons of the S/P.
• Cook chicken until done.
• When chicken is cool enough to handle, dice into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Toss the rice, chicken, onion, mango, avocado, and rest of the oil (1 tbs), remaining salt and pepper, lime juice, and cilantro.
• Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.
• Revision: Since posting this recipe, I have been trying to cut back on consuming empty carbohydrates. So when I make this now I use little to no rice, and fill it with more of the other ingredients. It is still very good, especially after marinating for a while.

SWEET RICE AND MANGO

Steps:

• Combine the rice and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until water is absorbed.
• Mix the desired amount of sugar into the hot rice. Portion the rice into 4 bowls. Top with mango slices, and pour some cream of coconut over the top of each bowl.
