I’m not a celery fan but kept it in cause I always try to do recipes as instructed when I cook them the first time and me oh my was it delicious. Might finally help me overcome my raw celery issues.

I used leftover rice from the Soy Baked Chicken with Garlic Rice, which was so flavourful. I think next time I’ll season the tomatoes with salt before adding to the salad. I did skip the celery and didn’t feel like I missed anything.

Delicious! Swapped the celery for edamame beans and served with salmon

On the video, the rice looks cooked when it goes in the pan. Do i cook it first? Thanks.

Hi Alison! Yes this recipe uses cooked sushi rice. It's a great way to use up leftovers, or you can cook it fresh following packet instructions. Enjoy!

My favourite salad - this one’s on our weekly rotation. NO CELERY THOUGH. Celery ruins everything.

This salad is incredible. I now make it once a week and crispy rice is a staple of my salads forever now.
