Arroz frío Molded Rice Salad

Versión en español

You can serve this Fancy Rice Salad as a starter or as part of a buffet during the holidays, it can be adapted to taste with the vegetables you have at home. You can replace the beetroot with chopped tomatoes, add peas or peppers, or corn to replace the green beans green. All variations that I love.
