Scandinavian Rice Salad With Smoked Salmon image

Such a traditional Scandinavian recipe combining the salmon with the dill. I ate my fair share of seafood salads such as this during my trip to Sweden. Recipe from Eating Well. They recommend serving it with some fresh rye bread or rye crisps (readily available in most grocery stores).

Number Of Ingredients 13

2/3 cup water
1 cup brown basmati rice (may sub any rice you like)
3/4 teaspoon salt, divided
1 cup cooked green peas
1/3 small English cucumber, cut in half lengthwise and thinly sliced (1 cup)
1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
