Jasmine Rice and Herb Salad with Shrimp
Malaysian nasi ulam, a rice dish suffused with a variety of Southeast Asian herbs, inspired this recipe. We use readily available herbs and add shrimp to make a light main dish out of the salad. If you find Thai basil, use it in place of Italian basil. You can buy cooked shrimp in the seafood department of most supermarkets or poach your own peeled and deveined shrimp.

Don’t use sweetened shredded coconut flakes; their sweetness will alter the flavor of the dish.

Used Thai basil, one cup, the herb overpowered the other ingredients.
