This vibrant basmati rice and summer vegetable salad is a celebration of seasonal produce, combining fragrant grains with a colourful medley of radishes, tomatoes and crunchy summer squash. The dish is brought to life with a zesty, homemade herb vinaigrette made from fresh thyme and flat-leaf parsley, which provides a bright contrast to the earthy rice. It is an excellent way to use up garden vegetables while keeping your meals light and refreshing.
As a versatile vegan main or a substantial side dish for a barbecue, this salad is both healthy and satisfying. The mixture of leafy greens, sprouts and toasted pine nuts adds a wonderful variety of textures that hold up well for a packed lunch or a light evening meal. Serve it slightly chilled or at room temperature to allow the herb-infused dressing to fully develop its savoury flavour.
