#  Hot-Smoked Salmon, Rice &amp; Asparagus Salad  


Hot-smoked salmon is like poached salmon but with a smokier flavour – perfect for salads. Alternatively, you could use poached salmon. The lemon dressing and herbs make the salad more vibrant by injecting a burst of flavour.

Ingredients

 Ingredients  


   300g of mixed white &amp; wild rice  

   6 spring onions, finely sliced  

   Large bunch of dill, chopped  

   Large bunch of flat-leaf parsley, chopped  

   3 eggs  

   200g of asparagus spears  

   200g of hot-smoked salmon slices, broken into large chunks  

 



  

 For The Lemon Dressing  


   Zest of 1 lemon  

   Juice of 2 lemons  

   180ml of olive oil  

   4 tbsp of white wine vinegar  

   4 tbsp of runny honey  

   2 tbsp of Dijon mustard  

 



  

 



Method

 Step 1 

Cook the rice in boiling salted water according to the packet instructions. Drain and refresh under cold water. Drain again.



 Step 2 

Place the rice in a bowl. Add the spring onions, dill and parsley and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine.



 Step 3 

Measure all the dressing ingredients into a jug and whisk together well. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the dressing and pour the remainder over the rice. Mix well, cover with cling film and chill in the fridge for about an hour.



 Step 4 

Meanwhile, place the eggs in a pan of boiling water and cook for 8 minutes for soft boiled. Drain and place in cold water before peeling. Cut each egg into quarters.



 Step 5 

Remove the woody ends from the asparagus. If the spears are thick, cut them in half lengthways. Slice the spears into 5cm lengths, then cook in boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain and refresh under cold water. Drain again.



 Step 6 

Tip the asparagus into the rice and mix to combine. Spoon into a serving dish and arrange the salmon pieces and egg quarters on top. Sprinkle with a little salt and freshly ground black pepper, then drizzle over the reserved dressing to serve.
