Recipe's preparation

  1. The Rice

    Add 900 mls of Water to Thermo and cook Medium Grain Brown Rice in Simmering Basket on 100C, speed 4 for 30 mins.




    Once rice is cooked, put it in a long container and pop it in the freezer for 10 minutes whilst preparing the rest of your ingredients, if it hasn't entirely cooled after the 10 mins, fold rice and place in freezer for a further 5 mins.



    The Dressing

    Add all dressing ingredients to a small plastic container and shake until combined, approx 30 seconds.


    The Rest

    I usually do this by hand as it comes out neater, though you can do in the Thermo: Chop Capsicum finely (picture for reference), set aside.


    Finely chop Parsley and Spring Onions, set aside.


    If you are using Raisins, chop them into small pieces, if you are using Currants, no need to chop them.


    Once the Rice has totally cooled, add each ingredient (incl. Cashews), one at a time and thoroughly fold through the Rice.


    Once Rice mixture is mixed through pour 1/2 of your Dressing in and fold through the Rice mixture, I usually add a dash more after the first mix through and fold through again.


    VERY IMPORTANT:

    FINISH THIS RECIPE THE DAY BEFORE YOU INTEND TO EAT IT, I CANNOT STRESS THE AMAZING DIFFERENCE IN FLAVOUR FROM THE FIRST DAY TO THE NEXT.

    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    oMo: I have and it was terrible so don't waste your money. I have pressure cooked my rice in the past which worked well. The recipe is delicious.

    This is the most amazing salad I have ever tried. I have made it 5 times in the last 2 months. I added pepitas and sunflower seeds like others have suggested and also make it the day before I need it. Absolutely delicious. Thank you!!

    This is a great recipe, similar to one I've been making for many years.. Mine has sesame oil and a little honey in the dressing. Plus, a couple of tablespoons of sunflower & pepita seeds make it super delicious.

    Has anyone ever made this using the microwave packet brown rice? (Just looking for ways to make it quicker when I have less time)

    I made this for Christmas and it's delicious! I used craisins instead of currants.
