Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Preheat oven to 220ºC/200ºC fan-forced.
• Chop cauliflower into small florets.
• Trim green beans and roughly chop.
• Thinly slice brown onion (see ingredients).
• Finely chop garlic. 

Roast the cauliflower
2

• Place cauliflower on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with 
olive oil, sprinkle with Mumbai spice blend and 
season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. 
• Roast until tender and brown around the edges, 
20-25 minutes. 


TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide cauliflower 
between two trays. 

Start the biryani
3

• Meanwhile, heat a large saucepan over  
medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil.
• Cook onion, stirring, until slightly softened,  
4-5 minutes.
• Add another drizzle of olive oil, Bengal curry paste 
(see ingredients) and garlic, then cook, stirring 
until fragrant, 1 minute.

Add the rice & currants
4

• To the saucepan, add basmati rice and currants, 
stirring to coat.
• Add green beans, the water and stock 
concentrate, then bring to the boil.
• Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for  
12 minutes, then remove pan from heat.
• Keep covered until rice is tender and the water is 
absorbed, 15 minutes.


TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so 
don’t peek!
