 Rice Salad Preparation Method

1. To prepare rice salad, first cook the rice for 10-12 minutes until tender but still slightly firm.  Do not overcook.  Drain and rinse with cold water.

2.  Allow the rice to cool completely and then place in a large serving bowl.  Add the spring onions, peppers, tomatoes and coriander.

3. Make the dressing by putting all the ingredients in a jar with a tight fitting lid and shaking vigorously until well blended.  Stir the dressing into the rice and adjust the seasoning.

4. Cover and chill for about 1 hour before serving the rice salad.
