Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
    3/4 cups onion, diced medium
    1 tablespoons curry powder
    1 teaspoon cumin, ground
    1 pinch red pepper flakes
    1 cup coconut milk

    1 cup cauliflower florets
    2 cups kale, shredded
    4 cups cooked basmati rice

  1. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook until tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add the curry powder, cumin, and crushed red pepper; stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the coconut milk and bring to a boil. Add the potatoes, squash, and tomatoes.

  2. Cover and simmer until potatoes are almost tender, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes, adding a little water if necessary. Add the carrots and cauliflower. Cover and simmer until all the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 7 minutes. Add the kale. Season with salt and pepper. Divide rice among 4 plates and top with the curry. Garnish with cilantro leaves.
