Mandarin and pineapple white rice salad.
This is a fairly plain recipe, but looks quite effective with the added colours, you can use your imagination andmix and add your own extra flavours or veges.
3 cups cooked rice (chilled)
3/4 cup pineapple pieces
1 can mandarin segments
1 cup chopped celery
few chopped spring onions, or thinly sliced red onion.
finely chopped red pepper.
finely sliced radishes
*you can add variations like chopped cucumber instead of the celery, extra yellow and green capsicums* a few pine nuts to garnish etc*
Put all ingredients except the mandarins into a bowl and gently toss thru the dressing.(adding just enough dressing to dampen the rice.) gently stir the mandarin pieces thru the salad just before serving to avoid crushing the segments.
Dressing:
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 TBSP mandarin juice
1 TBSP cider vinegar.
*serve the saladwell chilled.*
