1\/2 cup yellow lentil
\n1\/2 cup short grain rice (I used broken rice)
\n1 tbsp oil
\n1 tsp cumin seeds
\n5 cloves
\n2 cardamoms
\n2 bay leaves
\n1 medium onion (finely diced)
\n1 tsp ginger (grated)
\n1 tsp garlic (grated)
\n1 fresh red or green chilli (thinly sliced)
\n1 tsp turmeric powder
\n1\/2 tsp chilli powder
\n1\/2 tsp coriander powder
\n1 large tomato (finely diced)
\n1 tsp salt (to taste)
\n1\/2 tsp ground black pepper
\n4 cups water
\n1 cup potatoes (cut into 1 cm cubes)
\n1\/4 cup carrots (cut into 1 cm cubes)
\n1 cup cauliflower (cut into 2 cm florets)
\n1\/4 cup peas<\/p>\n
Wash rice & lentils well, soak in 2 cups of water for 1 hr.
\nHeat oil in a pot on medium high, add cumin seeds, cloves, cardamom, bay leaves, stir for 30 secs & add onion.
\nWhen onion has turned translucent, add ginger, garlic & green chilli, cook for 2 mins.
\nAdd turmeric, chilli & coriander powder, salt & pepper, saute for 1 min, add tomato & cook till it starts to break down.
\nDrain all the water from the rice & lentils, add into the pot, stir for 2 mins.
\nAdd water, stir, put on the lid & bring to a boil.
\nAdd potato & cook for 10 mins.
\nAdd cauliflower & carrot, cook for 5 mins.
\nBy then, rice & lentil should have broken down & look slightly creamy.
\nContinue cooking until it has reached desired consistency.
\nAdd peas, cook for 2 mins & taste to adjust seasoning.
\nServe hot with chutney, yoghurt, toasted cashews & chopped herb of choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
