How To Make Chickpea Layered Salad

Why would you transport your lunch to work in anything but a jar? This Chickpea Layered Salad is the perfect salad to whip up in the morning before work or to throw together as your head out the door for a day on the sand.

This is the second jar salad we’ve done. You can check out our Quinoa and Kale Salad in a jar recipe here.

A caveat: In no way are we encouraging to eat this salad underwater. That Guy kid be crazy!

parsley

First, make your herb butter. With butter at room temp combine with chopped fennel, rosemary, parsley and chives then set aside
Next make your stock. Shell and clean the prawns making short to reserve the shells
Next lightly toast the shells with parsley and rosemary
In a pot with olive oil, fry off the prawn shells and herbs. Next add water and bring to a rolling simmer. Reduce for 20mins then strain. Now it’s ready to use as stock
Now to cook the rice. Lightly toast your rice in a hot pan. Next ladle the stock over the rices slowly. Make sure you keep moving the rice. Be careful to wait until the rice absorbs the stock before adding the next ladle
