Recipe * Basmati high-protein insalata di riso

Also in full summer or mid autumn, while one can smell BBQs at every corner, there might be the need for a high-protein and fresh dish...

Eggs for omelette

Zucchini

Onion

Oregano

Graped fresh lemon or citron rind

Homemade extra virgin olive oil

Maize

Red kidneys beans (boiled or canned)

Azuki beans (boiled or canned)

Freshly picked basil (or fresh peppermint)

Quick o or other cottage cheese

Freshly picked sun ripened tomatoes from the kitchen garden 

Capers in wine or winegar

Salt

Kombu algae

Small champignon mushrooms sauteed

Boil the basmati rice, strain al dente. On a side, chop and cook aubergines in warm extra virgin olive oil with a slice of onion, sparkle with salt and oregano. Chop tomatoes and season with salt, extra virgin olive oil, capers and basil (or fresh mint) and let it stand for some minutes to create the natural sauce. Sauté the squashes (possibly roman costata) and sauté the mushrooms in a small pot (covered with lid) with extra virgin olive oil and herbs provinciali. Fry a thin omelette and cut it into rhombs.  Mix all the ingredient in the bowl and add  a sparkle of kombu algae, sprinkle with freshly picked lemon or citron graped rind and serve.
