Ingredients
Instructions
-
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.
• Cut cauliflower florets into bite-size pieces if necessary. Halve, peel, and finely dice half the onion (whole onion for 4 servings). Drain chickpeas, reserving 1⁄4 cup liquid (1⁄2 cup for 4). Pick cilantro leaves from stems.
-
• In a medium bowl, toss cauliflower with a large drizzle of olive oil, curry powder, and a couple big pinches of salt until coated.
• Spread cauliflower out on a baking sheet; roast on top rack until tender, 20-25 minutes.
-
• Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine rice, 3⁄4 cup water (11⁄2 cups for 4 servings), and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low. Cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.
• Keep covered off heat until ready to serve.
-
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and a pinch of salt and pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes.
• Add chickpeas and half the garam masala (all for 4 servings); cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.
-
• Stir in curry sauce base, reserved chickpea liquid, 1⁄2 tsp sugar (1 tsp for 4 servings), and 1⁄4 cup water (1⁄2 cup for 4) to pan with chickpeas. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 1-2 minutes.
• Remove from heat; stir in 2 TBSP butter (4 TBSP for 4) until melted. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
-
• Fluff rice with a fork; divide between one side of each bowl. Serve curry next to rice. Arrange cauliflower in the middle.
• Drizzle with yogurt. Sprinkle with cilantro leaves and serve.
