Black rice and feta cheese salad is a healthy and flavourful dish that features tender black rice, tangy feta cheese, and a variety of fresh vegetables and herbs. The salad is dressed with a simple vinaigrette made with olive oil and red wine vinegar, which helps to bring all the flavours together.

Ingredients

 

Directions

  • Rinse the black rice in a fine mesh strainer under cold running water. Bring the rice and water to a boil over high heat in a medium saucepan. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
  • Mix the cooked black rice, red onion, red bell pepper, feta cheese, parsley, and mint in a large bowl.
  • Whisk the olive oil and red wine vinegar in a small bowl until well combined—season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
