Coconut milk and curry are a perfect match—coconut’s mild, creamy flavor balances curry’s pungent spices. This rice bowl incorporates velvety roasted eggplant, crunchy cashews, and fluffy basmati rice for the perfect contrast of textures. A touch of lime at the very end brightens up the entire dish.

Instructions

1

In a small pot, bring 1 ½ cups water and a large pinch of salt to a boil. Once boiling, add the rice, cover, and reduce to a simmer for about 15 minutes, until tender. Keep covered until the rest of the meal is ready.

2

While the rice cooks, roughly chop the mushrooms. Thinly slice the scallion, keeping the greens and whites separate. Cut the eggplant into ¾-inch cubes. Cut the lime into wedges.

3

Toss the eggplant on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place in the oven for 25-30 minutes, until soft and golden brown.

4

Heat a large pan over medium heat. Add the cashews to the dry pan and cook, tossing, for 2-3 minutes, until toasted and fragrant.

5

Heat a drizzle of oil in the same pan over medium heat. Add the curry powder and scallion whites and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Add the mushrooms and ½ cup coconut milk to the pan and bring mixture to a boil. Once boiling, add 1 tablespoon peanut butter to the pan and stir to combine. Simmer for 10 minutes, until mushrooms are tender. Season with salt and pepper.

6

Once ready, stir the roasted eggplant and rice into the pan with the coconut mixture. Season with salt and pepper. Finish with a squeeze of lime, to taste.

7

Serve garnished with the toasted cashews, scallion greens, a wedge of lime, and enjoy!
