Recipe for Indian Rice-Stick Salad

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of rice sticks soaked in boiling water for about 15 minutes
  • Juice of 1 lemon (I use Meyer lemon, they are more flavorful and juicier)
  • about a tsp of salt
  • 1/2 - 1 tsp of mustard seeds
  • 1 dried hot red pepper
  • 1 pinch of asafetida (can be easily omitted)
  • 1/8tsp of turmeric
  • a bunch of curry leaves (can be omitted)
  • a few cilantro leaves finely minced for garnish.

Cooking Directions

After the rice sticks have softened, transfer the rice sticks to a colander and drain the water completely.

Heat a small pan, spray with a little oil/Pam if you like and add the mustard seeds and asafetida. 3-When the mustard seeds start to splutter, add the turmeric and the dried red hot pepper.

As soon as the pepper turns a shade darker, add the curry leaves, give the mixture a good stir and add to the rice sticks.

Add the salt and lemon juice to the rice sticks and gently toss the entire salad together. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

The dish can also be garnished with a few crushed peanuts, if you desire.
