Curried Rice Salad

[Guest guest]

I’ve been craving this lately, so I dug out my mother’s old recipe and

simply omitted the shrimp. It was delicious!

 

This is simple and quick, and always a hit with guests.

 

Curried Rice Salad

 

1 cup raw rice

1 tsp salk

½ tsp sugar

2 tbsp vinegar

1 tbsp curry powder

2 tbsp soy sauce

1/3 cup oil

½ cup frozen peas (thawed, not cooked) or use fresh if you have them

available

½ cup chopped celery

chow mein noodles

 

Cook and cool the rice. Combine salt, sugar, vinegar, curry powder, soy

sauce and oil. Bring to a boil. Let cool. Toss together rice, peas,

celery and a handful of chow mein noodles. Pour sauce over rice mixture

and stir to coat. Serve with additional chow mein noodles.

 

Note: the chow mein noodles in the salad will get soft if not served

immediately. Just toss a few more into it at serving time, or garnish

each serving with fresh ones to add some crunch.
