Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 teaspoons brown mustard seeds
1 medium yellow onion, diced small
1 cup long-grain white rice
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 tablespoon red curry paste
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk (from a 13.5-ounce can)
1 sweet potato (about 3/4 pound), peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small cauliflower, cut into florets
1 can (15.5 ounces) chickpeas, rinsed and drained
Fresh cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat 1 teaspoon oil over medium-high. Add mustard seeds and half the onion and cook, stirring often, until onion is soft, 3 minutes. Add rice and stir to combine. Add 1 1/2 cups water, season with salt and pepper, and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to a simmer; cook until water is absorbed and rice is tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
  • Meanwhile, in a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat 2 teaspoons oil over medium-high. Add remaining onion and cook, stirring often, until soft, 3 minutes. Add curry paste and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in coconut milk and 1 cup water and bring to a boil. Add sweet potato and cauliflower and season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer until vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Stir chickpeas into curry and increase heat to high. Simmer rapidly until liquid reduces slightly, 2 minutes. Serve curry over rice with cilantro.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and ensure that your curry comes together quickly and easily.
  • Use Fresh Vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your curry the best flavor and texture. If you can, try to use organic vegetables whenever possible.
  • Don't Overcook the Vegetables: Vegetables should be cooked until they are tender but still have a bit of a bite to them. Overcooked vegetables will become mushy and lose their flavor.
  • Use a Good Quality Curry Paste: The curry paste is what gives your curry its flavor, so it's important to use a good quality paste. Look for a paste that is made with fresh ingredients and has a good balance of spices.
  • Add Some Fresh Herbs: Fresh herbs can add a lot of flavor to your curry. Try adding some cilantro, basil, or mint at the end of cooking.
