Step by Step guide
Step 1
In a heated skillet, pour in the peanut butter, add finely chopped onion, and sauté for 3–4 minutes. Add the unwashed rice so that all grains are coated with oil. Pour in 570 ml of boiling water, add 1 teaspoon of salt, stir, and cover with a lid. Cook for 15 minutes on low heat. Do not open the lid or stir the rice while cooking. After 15 minutes, check that there is no liquid left in the skillet; if necessary, cook for another minute.
Step 2
Remove the rice from heat, open the lid, and place a towel on top for 5–10 minutes. Transfer the rice to a warmed dish and fluff it slightly with a fork.
Step 3
In the skillet, heat half of the butter and 1 teaspoon of olive oil, fry the black peppercorns, cloves, cardamom, poppy seeds, fennel, coriander (removing the seeds), cumin, and coconut for 2–3 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and grind.
Step 4
Chop the remaining 2 onions, the canned tomatoes, mince the garlic, and chop the mint leaves. Remove the seeds from the chili pepper and finely chop it. Take a ginger root about 5 cm long, peel it, and chop it finely as well.
Step 5
Heat the remaining butter in the skillet and sauté the chopped onion for 8–10 minutes. Add the tomatoes, garlic, ginger, chili pepper, mint leaves, cinnamon stick, and sugar, stirring and cooking on low heat for 4–5 minutes.
Step 6
Remove the vegetables from heat, discard the cinnamon stick, and blend until smooth. Add the spice mixture and 1 teaspoon of salt. Place the puree in a large container. On a baking sheet, spread the cashews, place in an oven preheated to 356°F, and roast for 10 minutes.
Step 7
Cut the eggplant, potato, and peeled carrot into pieces. Cut the green beans in half, remove the seeds from the sweet pepper, slice it into thin rings, and slice the tomato.
Step 8
Remove the cashews from the baking sheet and add the eggplant, potato, carrot, cauliflower, and green beans. Drizzle with olive oil and roast in the oven for 25 minutes.
Step 9
Add the corn kernels to the vegetables and place the baking sheet in the oven for another 5 minutes. Combine the vegetables with the sauce. Place half of the rice on a dish, top with the vegetables in sauce, and then add more rice.
Step 10
Serve with cashews, sweet pepper, and tomato.
