Black-Eyed Pea-Basmati Salad - Guy Fieri
Recipe courtesy of Guy Fieri for Food Network Magazine

6 servings

For the Salad:
1/2 cup dried black-eyed peas, rinsed
Kosher salt
1/2 cup basmati rice
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1/3 cup Spanish olives, halved

For the Dressing:
2 tablespoons coarse-grain dijon mustard
4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Prepare the salad: Put the peas in a saucepan with 3 cups water and
1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil and cook 4 minutes. Remove from the
heat, cover and let sit 1 hour. Drain, then return to the saucepan
with 1 cup fresh water. Bring to a simmer and cook, partially covered,
until just al dente, about 10 minutes. Let cool in the liquid.

Meanwhile, put the rice in another saucepan with 1 1/2 cups water and
the garlic. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook 16 minutes. Remove from
the heat and let cool, then fluff with a fork.

Make the dressing: Whisk the mustard, vinegar, olive oil, honey,
cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a nonreactive
bowl. Adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Assemble the salad: Drain the peas and toss with the rice in a large
bowl. Add the onion, bell pepper and olives, then add the dressing and
toss. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
