Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion and celery in butter until tender, stirring frequently. Season with curry powder, and continue cooking for one minute.
In a large bowl, mix together yogurt, lime juice, lime zest, and sugar. Stir in rice, onion and celery mixture, chopped kiwi, ham, cheese, nuts, and mushrooms. Arrange sliced kiwi over salad.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Gruener Veltliner
Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Gruener Veltliner are my top picks for Salad. Sauvignon Blanc and Gruner Veltliner both have herby notes that complement salads with enough acid to match tart vinaigrettes, while a Chardonnay can be a good pick for creamy salad dressings. The Moet & Chandon White Star () with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.
Moet & Chandon White Star ()
White Star is a softer champagne. It is well balanced and harmonious, with subtle aromas of warm toast and gingerbread. The finish is sustained with a hint of honey.
