Method

Preparation of Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Basmati Rice

    Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rinsed rice and water, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

Preparation of Vegetables

  1. 2

    Char the Corn

    In a pan over medium-high heat, add the corn kernels. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are charred and golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Dice the tomato, bell pepper, and cucumber into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.

Assembly of the Bowl

  1. 4

    Combine Greens and Rice

    In a large bowl, layer the chopped romaine and kale at the bottom. Add a generous scoop of the cooked basmati rice on top.

  2. 5

    Add Vegetables

    Top the rice with the charred corn, chopped tomato, bell pepper, and cucumber.

  3. 6

    Add Dips and Toppings

    Spoon the avocado dip over the top, followed by crumbled feta cheese and olives. Drizzle with spicy feta sauce for an extra kick.
