Salad
- 2 Pouches Tilda Steamed Wholegrain Basmati Rice
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 175g tiger prawns, raw, peeled
- 250g tomatoes, cherry or regular halved
- 25g arugula leaves
Pesto
- 1 garlic clove, chopped
- 1 tsp salt
- 80g bunch Fresh coriander, leaves and stalks
- 30g almonds, whole blanched, toasted
- 6 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, good quality
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
Method
-
Time to make the pesto. Place the garlic, salt and coriander in a food processor and blend until finely chopped. Add the almonds and blend again until coarsely chopped. Take out the blade and stir in the olive oil and lemon juice.
-
Heat the oil in a frying pan over a high heat and add the prawns. Stir fry for 1 minute and then add the tomatoes and stir everything together until the prawns are pink all over and the tomatoes softened a little.
-
Cook the rice as per pack instructions and empty into a dish for mixing. Stir the pesto into the rice whilst it is still warm, so it coats all the grains and then add half the tomatoes and prawns.
-
Serve on to dishes with the arugula leaves topped with the extra prawns and tomatoes on top.
