Wild rice, watermelon and walnuts

Tamara West

Wild rice has a delicious nuttiness and a slightly crunchy texture - it’s perfect with walnuts. I have added the watermelon and mint to provide a hint of sweetness and a fresh summer zing.

1 cup	Wild rice, cooked (Main)
1 tsp	Flaky sea salt
1 to taste	White pepper, freshly ground
1 cup	Watermelon, diced (Main)
1 cup	Tomato, ripe, diced
½ cup	Red capsicums (Main)
½ cup	Red onions, diced
2 tsp	Red chillies, finely chopped
1 Tbsp	Sherry vinegar
1 Tbsp	Walnut oil
1 Tbsp	Vegetable oil
2 Tbsp	Parsley, sliced
2 Tbsp	Coriander, sliced

Directions

1. In a bowl mix together cooked rice, walnuts, salt and pepper and spoon on to a platter.
2. Gently mix together watermelon, tomatoes, capsicum, onion, chilli, vinegar and oils — arrange alongside rice mix and sprinkle with parsley and coriander.
3. Combine all ingredients together when serving to guests.
