Cauliflower Pilaf

This is a simple, healthy, flavourful pilaf rice dish. It is good enough to be the starring dish of the meal, but it can also be served as a side dish.

Ingredients:
2 onions
oil
100 g puy lentils
water
1 sweet potato
1 cauliflower
25 g coconut
2-4 tbsp green curry paste
onion seeds
100 g brown basmati rice
1 vegetable stock cube
yogurt

Instructions:
1. Chop the onions and fry them lightly in the oil in a large pan.
2. Rinse the lentils and boil them in water for about 20 minutes, then drain.
3. Peel and dice the sweet potato and chop the cauliflower. Add them, the coconut, the curry paste, and the onion seeds to the onions and fry for a few minutes.
4. Rinse the rice and add it to the pan along with the stock cube and enough water to cover everything.
5. Simmer until the water mostly boils away, adding the lentils towards the end.
6. Serve with yogurt.
