For a spicy kick from the Caribbean, why not give Caribbean rice and black bean salad a try? This simple, tasty and flavoursome delicacy is a great companion on hot, summery days! To lend an authentic island taste, cook it in coconut oil and squeeze lime juice over rice and beans.
Method
- In a small bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar, Dijon mustard, cumin and garlic until well blended.
- Season it with salt and pepper as per the taste and add in some sugar if you find the dressing too strong.

- Can be made several hours ahead. Cover and chill.
