Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    Weigh brown rice dry. Rinse it, bring the measured 1000 ml water to a boil in a saucepan, add rice and simmer for the full package time, usually 25–40 minutes, until tender. Drain thoroughly.

  2. Step 2

    Spread cooked rice in a shallow container and refrigerate promptly, loosely covered, until at or below 4°C, approximately 45–60 minutes. Close the container once cold.

  3. Step 3

    While rice chills, use canned sweetcorn weighed after draining. Wash and dry cultivated button mushrooms, lettuce and basil; thinly slice mushrooms and shred lettuce. Peel and stone mango, dice the flesh and reserve a small handful. Cut washed lime into wedges.

  4. Step 4

    Whisk all oil and vinegar with torn basil.

  5. Step 5

    Toss cold rice, sweetcorn, mushrooms, lettuce and remaining mango with dressing. Top six side portions with reserved mango and serve with lime wedges.
