Black Rice Salad with Mango and Peanuts image

Provided by Bon Appétit Test Kitchen

Yield Makes 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 oranges
1/4 cup (or more) fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon fish sauce (such as nam pla or nuoc nam; optional)
2 cups black rice (preferably Lotus Foods Forbidden Rice)
Kosher salt
2 just-ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted, cut into 1/2" dice
1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
1 cup finely chopped red onion (about 1/2 large onion)
1/2 cup unsalted, dry-roasted peanuts
6 scallions, thinly sliced
2 jalapeños, seeded, minced

Steps:

  • Remove peel and white pith from oranges. Working over a medium bowl to catch juices and using a small sharp knife, cut between membranes to release orange segments into bowl. Squeeze membranes over bowl to release any juices. Strain juices through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl; reserve orange segments.
  • Add 1/4 cup lime juice, oil, and fish sauce (if using) to bowl with orange juice; whisk to blend. Set dressing aside.
  • Bring rice and 2 3/4 cups water to a boil in a large saucepan. Season lightly with salt. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer until all liquid is absorbed and rice is tender, about 25 minutes. Remove pan from heat and let stand, covered, for 15 minutes. Spread out rice on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with dressing, and season lightly with salt; let cool.
  • Place mangoes and remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Add rice and toss gently to combine. Season lightly with salt and more lime juice, if desired.

This salad is delicious! The only thing I would change is to add a bit more dressing.

This salad is a bit too spicy for my taste, but it's still really good. I'll definitely be making it again with less chili.

I'm not a fan of mango, but I still enjoyed this salad. The dressing is really flavorful and the black rice is a nice change from regular rice.

The dressing is a bit too sweet for my taste, but otherwise this salad is delicious. I'll definitely be making it again with a different dressing.
