Mango And Basmati Rice Salad
- 1 1/2 cups white basmati rice
- 3/4 cup orange juice
- 6 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon sugar (to taste)
- heaping 1/8 teaspoon fresh nutmeg
- 1 -2 large mango, firm, ripe
- salt
- chopped fresh parsley
- In a large bowl stir rice in cool water, drain.
- Repeat several times until water is no longer cloudy.
- Drain well.
- Combine rice and 2 1/3 cups of water. Bring to a boil over high heat, cover, turn the heat to low and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Do not stir while cooking, do not overcook.
- Take pot off of heat source, leave cover on to cool.
- When the rice is cool, separate it with a fork.
- In a large bowl, combine juices, sugar and nutmeg.
- Peel and pit mangoes, dice them into the bowl with the seasoned juices.
- Add the rice into the bowl, mix and salt to your taste.
- I like to add chopped fresh parsley at this point, just until it looks "right".
- Sprinkle with more nutmeg if desired.
- Chill.
