  • 80g cauliflower
  • 80g onion
  • 150g chopped tomatoes
  • 6g garlic
  • 5g ginger
  • 1 tsp each cumin, turmeric & garam masala

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the carrot and cauliflower, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Simmer the brown rice in plenty of water for 25 minutes until tender, then drain.

  3. 3

    Pat the chickpeas dry and roast at 200°C for 20 minutes until crisp, tossing halfway.

  4. 4

    Soften the onion for 5 minutes, add garlic, ginger and spices for 1 minute, then pour in the tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes into a thick masala.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the carrot and cauliflower for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the bowl: brown rice first, then the veg and chickpea, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh coriander.
