• 2 tbsp ginger paste or minced ginger
• 4 cloves garlic finely sliced

• 2 cups green beans
• handful slivered almonds for garnish

• olive oil for cooking
• salt to taste

Instructions

• Preheat the oven to 400F degrees.
• Place the basmati rice in a large saucepan, add a pinch of salt and enough cold water to cover the rice. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for 12 minutes. Drain if needed. Set aside and keep warm.
• Arrange the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet and drizzle with vegetable oil. Sprinkle over the turmeric and toss to coat. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
  
• Add the green peppers to the baking sheet with the cauliflower and cook for an additional 20 minutes, or until the veggies are softened and beginning to brown.
  
• In a small pot, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Dissolve the stock cubes and tomato puree in the hot water. Remove from heat and set aside.
• Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large pan. Add the sliced onion, and cook for 5-6 minutes until the onion has begun to turn golden and soften.
• Add the ginger paste, garlic, garam masala, coriander, cinnamon, and cloves the pan and cook for a couple of minutes until fragrant.
  
• Add the tomato wedges, chili peppers, tomato stock (that you made in previous steps) and green beans to the pan. Cook over high heat for 6-7 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Add salt, to taste.
  
• Remove the cauliflower and green peppers from the oven and add them to the pan, mix well to coat all the vegetables in the curry sauce.
