Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

¼ cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup matchstick-cut carrots
1 cup matchstick-cut daikon radish
2 cups water
1 cup basmati rice
1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon chile paste (such as sambal oelek), or to taste
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup chopped fresh cilantro
¼ cup chopped roasted peanuts
2 green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Whisk rice vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a bowl; add carrots and radish and stir until well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate, stirring occasionally, until flavors blend, at least 1 hour. Drain.
  • Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Spread rice out on a baking sheet and cool to room temperature.
  • Whisk vegetable oil, lime juice, ginger, sesame oil, garlic, chile paste, and remaining salt together in a large bowl. Add rice, drained carrot mixture, cilantro, peanuts, and green onions to the bowl; stir until salad is well-coated. Serve warm or cold.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out really mushy. I think I may have overcooked the rice.

The salad was good, but I found it to be a bit bland. I think I would add some more spices next time.

This salad was a bit too vinegary for my taste. I think I would use less vinegar next time.
