Steps:
- PREPARATION.
- Bring adequate (two cups?) amount of salted water to rolling boil, add rice, turmeric & raisins.
- Stir so that turmeric mixes into rice and can be absorbed, bring rice back to boil, then turn right down to simmer covered for rest of cooking time (10 - 12 minutes?).
- Once rice is cooked, rinse/drain; set aside to cool.
- Finely chop both green pepper & white onion.
- Chunky chop (not fine) half of the peaches from the can.
- Add pepper, onion, peaches, cayenne pepper/peri peri, chutney, mayonnaise, salt & pepper to rice turning ingredients into rice gently so as not to mash rice.
- Garnish with parsley.
- VARIATIONS.
- •Try adding 1/4 cup brown rice which would need cooking separately as it takes longer to cook. just stir into plain rice before adding other ingredients.
- •Using a tablespoon of either lemon or lime juice gives this dish a nice twist, or even try using lemon or lime rind for an extra zing.
Tips:
- Choose the right rice: Use a short-grain rice like sushi rice or arborio rice for a sticky, creamy texture. If you prefer a lighter, fluffier salad, use a long-grain rice like basmati or jasmine rice.
- Cook the rice properly: Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove any starch and impurities. Cook the rice according to the package directions, or use a rice cooker for best results.
- Let the rice cool completely: Before assembling the salad, let the rice cool completely to room temperature. This will help prevent the salad from becoming soggy.
- Use a variety of fruits: The best fruit salads are made with a variety of fruits, both fresh and dried. Some popular choices include berries, citrus fruits, melons, and tropical fruits. You can also add some chopped nuts or seeds for extra crunch.
- Make a flavorful dressing: A simple vinaigrette is a great dressing for fruit salad. You can also use a store-bought dressing, or make your own with olive oil, vinegar, honey, and herbs.
- Serve the salad chilled: Fruit salad is best served chilled, so make sure to refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
Fruit rice salad is a refreshing and delicious side dish or light meal. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a variety of fruits, a flavorful dressing, and the perfect rice, you can create a fruit rice salad that everyone will love.
