Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup cooked masoor dal
  • 1/2 cup cooked basmati rice
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
  • 1/2 tsp garam masala
  • 1 tsp oil
  • to taste N/A salt

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a mixing bowl, toss the cauliflower florets with 1/2 tsp turmeric, 1/2 tsp cumin seeds, 1/4 tsp garam masala, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp oil until evenly coated.

2

Spread the spiced cauliflower florets in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and tender.

Gently reheat the cooked basmati rice in a microwave or on the stovetop until warm.
