Ingredients
For the salad
1/2 head of romaine lettuce
150ml cooked black rice
150ml cooked black turtle beans
200g baby plum tomatoes
For the vegetables
2 peppers
1 red onion
2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
 
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp paprika powder
1/2 tsp ground coriander
Pinch of chili powder
Pinch of sea salt
For the dressing 4 spring onions 2 chilis Handful of fresh coriander or mint
2 tbsp lemon juice 1 tbsp white vine vinegar 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
Big pinch of salt and pepper
To serve Guacamole Handful of toasted peanuts Fresh coriander or mint

Instructions
This is a really filling salad with lots of strong flavours and different textures. Take my advice and cook about 4 times as much beans as you think you might need because at least in our household we end up having variations of this dish for days until we run out of the ingredients… Start by soaking the beans over night according to the instructions on the package. Cook the beans and the rice and set aside to cool. Whilst the rice cooks chop the ingredients for the dressing finely, mix everything together and leave to rest.
Once the beans have cooled mix them with the halved tomatoes and pour two thirds of the dressing on top and mix. Leave to marinade in the fridge. Peanuts go very well with this dish but any nut will do for a bit of crunch. Peel them and toast in a pan until golden and leave to cool. Chop the peppers and onion into slices. Pour the olive oil into a pan and wait until hot then add the spices and stir. Add the veg and cook until soft. Rinse the lettuce then assemble the salad and spoon over the remaining dressing. Serve with guacamole, the toasted peanuts and some fresh herbs on top.
