Rice Salad with Fava Beans and Pistachios

Ingredients for Rice Salad with Fava Beans and Pistachios

• 90g wild rice

• Koshersalt

• 190g basmati rice

• 1 dried Iranian lime (optional)

• 240ml fresh shelled fava beans (from about 450g pods) or frozen, thawed

• 1/2 cup chopped fresh dill

• 1/2 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

• 1/2 cup unsalted, raw pistachios

• 60ml olivolja

• 2 teaspoons finely grated lemon zest

• 60ml fresh lemon juice

• 1/2 teaspoons Iranian lime powder or 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest

• Dried Iranian limes, also known as limu omani, are available at Middle Eastern markets and online.

Cook wild rice in a medium pot of boiling salted water until tender and grains start to split, 35–40 minutes. Drain; let cool.

Meanwhile, combine basmati rice, lime, if using, and 350ml water in a medium saucepan, season with salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 10 minutes. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork. Cover; let sit until water is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Let cool; discard lime.

If using fresh fava beans, cook in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until tender, about 4 minutes. Drain; transfer to a bowl of ice water. Drain and peel. (If using frozen fava beans, cook 2 minutes; transfer to a bowl of ice water, then drain.)

Toss wild rice, basmati rice, dill, parsley, pistachios, oil, lemon zest and juice, lime powder, and fava beans in a large bowl; season with salt.

Do ahead: Fava beans can be cooked and peeled 2 days ahead; cover and chill. Wild and basmati rice can be cooked 2 days ahead; cover and chill.
