Moroccan Rice Tuna Salad

[Dimanta]

Love your recipes, could watch all day. I only have question about tomatoe. Do I have to remove the juice from it? I saw on your video but wasnt sure.

[cookingwithalia]

@Dimanta so glad you are enjoying the recipes! you dont need to remove the juice. if you just slice and dice the tomatoes, it should be fine.

do you speak french?

[eviraaddict]

hehehe. there a smiley face. wheey! hmm i think ive tried this recipe b4 but instead of using tuna we use crab meat and also without the ball pepper. yummy nom,nom!

[rosered130]

Hi Alia ! If i don't like peppers, what can I replace it with ? I thought maybe of peas and celery, but I don't know if that would be a good match... What can you recommand me ? :)

PS: Your show is awesome, I really like it !!

the olive smiley face was funny.

Does this salad hold well in the refrigerator, or do you have to eat it on the same day you prepare it? The reason I ask is because I am trying to find new foods to take with me for lunch that don't require heating. I am getting bored with cold sandwiches :\

[cookingwithalia]

@Oecologeae

What you can do is prepare the salad without the dressing. This way you can preserve the rice for up to 2 days in the fridge. The morning before taking the rice with you to work you can add the dressing.

[sabbirsa]

@cookingwithalia here is a question for you. can I use brown rice instead of white rice? Great recipe BTW. very unique and healthy I must say.

[Eh2thaZ]

i just made this. ohhhmyygoshhhh...

[ndlz1]

Just wondering if you use any particular type of rice, such as jasmine, basmati or plain long grain?

[cookingwithalia]

@ndlz1

I used bastmati because it's my favorite. feel free to use the rice of your choice, in Morocco we use the plain long grains.

[AfghanpowerNL]

Alia you are amazing! Thanks so much

[ShiShisstuff]

Alia, the Moroccan tuna salad was a hit! I made it 3x in one week. Now I will work on the Hirija and stuffed figs for Ramadan. Keep up the excellent work and thanks for updating the music...hugs

[bigglkhasser321]

hmmmmm mon plat préféré

[eraoul]

Looks delicious! But I haaaaaate mayo... I can just leave it out, right? :)

[drew7473]

yummy! i'll try it...

[LadyBlueGreenFairy]

Hello Alia!

I love this recipe and how you presented your smiling rice, it looked cute. LOL! Yummy!

Have a lovely day,

Bye

[badjujuwan]

Like your videos, Alia. The smiley face was cute.

[enjoydotcom]

Not trying to be mean, but what is Moroccan about this?

[noneedtogrowup]

@enjoydotcom As a moroccan , I see myself free to answer :D

This salad is a derivative of the "salade niçoise" ( a french salad , of course) , made in a moroccan way, since raw bell peper is used ;)

[enjoydotcom]

@noneedtogrowup Aha, :D Thing is, I too use all these ingrediënts, and I'm Dutch.

[emilyhf3]

Do you really use all the sauce for this amount of rice mixture? It seems like it would be too much. Thanks for the video!

[ellelesrose]

@emilyhf3 I think you can always arrange things so it would suit your way. I agree maybe the sauce is a bit too much...maybe half the amount would be enough...or you can use less mayo and olive oil. I want to add cucumbers in this one. hehe. =D

[capcod77]

great job alia ,keep up the good work......

[ImGoingOnABerryHunt]

I just made this salad and it came out delicious!!!

When I made the dressing and tasted it, I loved it so I doubled the batch!

I can't wait for my hubby to get home and try it.

Well done Alia.

Its a perfect summer recipe.

[rox8888]

@ImGoingOnABerryHunt I'm doing the same thing for my hubby today!

except the dijon mustard because I don't like it ..

cheers!

[rox8888]

I just adored the olive smile!

[ImGoingOnABerryHunt]

Wow, that looks really delicious.

I know what to make as a side dish for dinner tonight!!!

Thank you...

Post more "summer friendly" recipes, because although extremely delicious, I could swear some of your other recipes are meant to be enjoyed during the winter days more so than any other season :)
