We enjoyed this curried cauliflower and rice dish. I used 2 cups of chicken broth.I didn't see onions in the ingredient list so I used 1/2 onion chopped.I also used garlic/ginger paste as well. Loved the cashew nuts and cilantro in this dish.

So easy to make and great tasting! I did find I needed to add more stock and cook a bit longer.....my rice was still crunchy. I also used a tad more chicken thighs and therefore used a tad more curry paste. Loved the flavors, cauliflower was amazing! Thanks for sharing your great recipe! Made for Billboard Tag game.
