Start by cooking the long grain jasmine (or other type) rice as per the instructions on the packet. Make sure it's long grain. Usually cooking requires double the amount of water to rice.


Cinnamon Roasted Cauliflower
1 medium-sized head of cauliflower (about 2 lbs or 910 g)
3 tablespoons (45 ml) olive oil, divided
3 tablespoons (27 g) cornmeal
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste

Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC, or gas mark 6).

Cut the cauliflower into bite-size pieces (about 1 inch or 2.5 cm across). Discard the tough core. Place the cauliflower florets in a large bowl and coat evenly with 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of the olive oil.

In a small bowl, sift together the cornmeal, cinnamon, and sea salt. Sprinkle evenly onto cauliflower and toss with your hands until each floret is well coated. Add a touch more cornmeal if needed to evenly cover.

Transfer the cauliflower to an ungreased baking sheet (flat sides down), discarding any excess cornmeal. Drizzle lightly with the remaining 1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil.

Bake for about 40 minutes without flipping or until the cauliflower is crispy and browned on the edges and bottoms.

Gently transfer the cauliflower to a plate with a flat metal spatula. Serve immediately.
