when i was in high school, i lived in barcelona for a summer. my host family would make this salad every week. there was so much that i loved about the spanish cuisine, but this salad was my favorite and i still to this day make it often. it is best when you use freshly picked apples which makes it a perfect fall salad!
ingredients
1 1/2 cup rice, cooked
3 apples, a tart variety is best(I used winesap's but granny smith are also great)
1/2 purple onion, diced
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 tsp salt (or more or less to taste)
1 tsp cumin
directions
-make the rice and let it cool for about 30-45 minutes
-finely dice the purple onions
-dice the apples, leaving the skins on for texture and color
-toss the apples, onions, and raisins with the salt and cumin
-when the rice is cool, fold in the fruit mixture
-serve chilled
