A cold salad that smells like summer (and tastes like shrimp)? Yes! This one was brought to us by Mafalda Sena, creator of the @Senasaudáveis and @SUPERE projects. It only takes 15 minutes to prepare. Take note of the step-by-step instructions and enjoy.
Ingredients (6 servings ) :
200g of black rice;
450g of water;
400g of shrimp meat;
4 handfuls of arugula;
1/2 chopped red onion;
30 cherry tomatoes;
2 ripe avocados;
2 small oranges in juice;
2 tablespoons of olive oil;
1 pinch of salt.
Preparation method:
Start by making the sauce, mixing the olive oil, orange juice and salt;
Cook the rice in a medium pot of boiling salted water for 35-40 minutes. Drain well, spread on a plate, and let cool.
Thaw the shrimp meat and cook for 1 minute in boiling salted water. Drain and rinse in cold water. Let cool.
Wash the tomato and cut it in half, then set aside. Finely chop the red onion and set aside. Dice the avocado and start plating: 4 tablespoons of black rice per plate, shrimp, tomato, avocado, onion, and arugula, and season with the fresh orange juice dressing.
If you plan to take it with you to the beach or if you won't be consuming it right away, start with the sauce at the bottom of the jar, then the avocado, tomato, onion, rice, shrimp, and arugula, lastly.
Note: Store in the refrigerator. When ready to eat, turn the jar so that the dressing coats the salad.
