Cauliflower and Lentil Dhansak Curry with Brown Rice, Garlic Spinach, Pickled Onions and Yoghurt
This dish is a fragrant, plant powered take on classic Indian flavours. Cauliflower and lentils are simmered with warming spices to create a rich, comforting dhansak, full of depth and natural sweetness. Served with nutty brown rice, garlic spinach and tangy pickled onions, every bite has layers of flavour and texture. A drizzle of lemon yoghurt adds a bright, creamy finish. Wholesome, aromatic and satisfying, it is a bowl that feels both nourishing and indulgent.

Recipes get reformulated and portions shrink without an announcement. We read this page every week anyway.
Every figure above is read from what the service publishes, and services change their pages without telling us. If something here does not match this meal as it is sold today, we would rather hear it than print it.
