Ingredients

  1. 300g cooked jasmine rice, cooled
  2. 400g prawns, peeled, deveined, and chopped
  3. 1 avocado, diced
  4. 1 small cucumber, finely chopped
  5. 1 red capsicum, diced
  6. 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
  7. Juice of 2 limes
  8. 2 tbsp olive oil
  9. 1 tbsp fish sauce
  10. 1 tsp sugar
  11. Fresh coriander leaves, chopped, for garnish
  12. Optional: red chilli slices, for heat
  13. Lime wedges, to serve

Method

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked and cooled jasmine rice with the chopped prawn meat. If the prawns are not pre-cooked, sauté them in a hot pan with a little oil for 2-3 minutes until pink and cooked through.
  2. Dice the cucumber into small pieces, thinly slice the red onion, and halve the cherry tomatoes. Add these vegetables to the bowl with the rice and prawns.
  3. Chop the fresh coriander and add it to the bowl, tossing the ingredients gently to combine.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lime zest, olive oil, honey, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more lime or honey for extra zing or sweetness.
  5. Pour the dressing over the rice, prawn, and vegetable mixture. Toss everything gently to ensure the dressing coats all ingredients evenly.
  6. If desired, slice the avocado and arrange on top of the salad as a garnish. Serve immediately, or chill for 15-20 minutes for a refreshing, cold salad.

Chef's Tip

For a fresh and vibrant rice salad bowl, allow the rice to cool completely before mixing so the grains stay light and separate rather than becoming sticky. The sweet prawns pair perfectly with the bright lime dressing, creamy avocado, and crisp vegetables, creating a balanced combination of texture and flavour. Toss the salad gently just before serving to keep the avocado intact and the herbs fresh, and serve chilled for the most refreshing result.
