Method
- Heat the oil in a large, lidded saucepan over a medium-high heat. Add the onions, pepper, garlic, ginger and coriander stalks and fry for 5 mins until lightly golden and starting to soften.
- Stir through the turmeric, cinnamon and tikka paste, then mix in the cauliflower and rice until evenly combined. Add the stock and stir to combine. Cover with a lid and simmer for 25 mins until the rice is soft and fluffy.
- Once cooked, remove from the heat and fluff the rice with a fork. Stir through the remaining coriander and lemon zest and serve with a wedge of lemon.
