Round lunch box with spelt salad, avocado and basil

Ingredients

Serves 2

Quantity

200–250 g rice (cooked the day before or ready-cooked pouch rice)
2–3 tbsp soy sauce
2–3 tbsp oil
1 avocado
1 cucumber
150 g edamame (cooked or fresh)
250 g yogurt
Sriracha or other hot sauce
Salt
Black pepper

Preparation

Prepare the crispy rice:
Place the rice that was cooked and cooled the day before into a bowl. Mix well with 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1–2 tbsp oil. Spread the rice evenly on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (top/bottom heat) or 180°C (fan) for about 20-30 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Stir once during baking so the rice becomes evenly crispy.

Prepare the vegetables:
While the rice is in the oven, slice the cucumber and cut the avocado into pieces. Cook the edamame according to the package instructions if necessary. Place the cucumber, avocado, and edamame in a large bowl.

Assemble the salad:
Let the finished crispy rice cool slightly, then add it to the bowl with the vegetables.

Prepare the dressing:

For the dressing, mix yogurt with sriracha sauce (or another hot sauce of your choice). Adjust the amount of sauce depending on your preferred level of spiciness. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Mix and serve:

Mix the dressing into the salad until everything is evenly coated. The salad tastes especially good when fresh, but it’s also great for meal prep. For best results, store the crispy rice and dressing separately and mix them just before eating so the rice stays nice and crispy.

Preparation time: approx. 20 minutes
