Rice salad with turkey, celery and grapes


Ingredients (serves 4)

1 cup (200g) long-grain white rice
1 bunch thick asparagus, (woody ends trimmed), cut into 4cm lengths
2 tbs white wine vinegar
1 tbs rice bran or sunflower oil
1 tsp Dijon mustard
250g thinly sliced cooked turkey breast, roughly torn
1 yellow capsicum, thinly sliced
100g mixed baby salad leaves (mesclun)
12 seedless green grapes, halved
4 inner celery stalks with leaves, thinly sliced

Method

1. Cook rice according to packet instructions. Add the asparagus for the final 2 minutes of the rice cooking time. Rinse the rice and asparagus under cold running water to cool completely, then drain well.

2. Whisk together the vinegar, oil, mustard and 1 tablespoon of warm water in a large bowl. Season to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Add the remaining ingredients, including the rice and asparagus, and toss to combine.
