Adding natural color to rice not only makes the food exciting and colorful, it also gives a new taste experience. To get this fiery red color, I have used the orange powder color from Fruity Friendly made from red pepper, but you can also use turmeric for a slightly more yellow color.
Ingredients
- 1 dl basmati rice
- 1 ½ dl water
- 1 tsp butter
- ½ tbsp orange red pepper powder
- 1 handful fresh coriander
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 x avocado
- ½ x lemon
- 1 dl extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pinch sea salt flakes
- 1 pinch black pepper
- ½ x mango
- 100 g salmon fillet
Method
- Rinse the rice and add it to a pot. Add water, a little salt, orange food powder and butter. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat and cover with a lid. Let the rice steam for 15 minutes without removing the lid.
- In the glass of the immersion blender, make avocado cream. Add coriander, garlic, lemon juice, avocado, olive oil, flaked salt and coarsely ground pepper. Mix together until you get a smooth cream. Feel free to add some water little by little until you get the thickness you like best. I usually use 2-3 tablespoons per serving.
- Chop the mango into small sticks.
- Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a frying pan and fry the fish until it is cooked through.
- Serve the salmon over rice, mango and avocado cream.
