Cook Time 30 minutes
Servings: 4 people

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ C cooked rice
  • 4 tablespoon tamari
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 3 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large cucumber, chopped into rough cubes
  • ¼ small head red cabbage, shredded
  • 2-3 spring onion, finely chopped
  • 1 medium carrot, shaved and roughly chopped
  • 2 chillies, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 200℃. In a large bowl combine the cooked rice, tamari, cayenne pepper and half the olive oil. Mix well, then lay the rice out onto a baking tray and bake in the oven until golden and crispy, stirring a couple of times until you have reached your desired crispiness, about 20 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, place the cucumber, cabbage, spring onion, carrot, sesame seeds and chillies.
  3. In a small bowl, combine the tahini, honey, ginger and rice wine vinegar. Slowly whisk in the olive oil until the dressing has emulsified.
  4. Remove rice from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before adding it to the large bowl with the vegetables.
  5. Pour the dressing over and combine well. Enjoy!
