Instructions
Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. Boil a kettle of water. Drain and rinse the chickpeas. Slice the carrot into thin rounds. Cut the cauliflower into small florets. In a baking dish, add the chickpeas, cauliflower, carrot, Sri Lankan spice blend, garlic paste and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Bake until slightly browned, 20-25 minutes.
While the veggies are roasting, Half-fill a medium saucepan with the boiling water. Add the basmati rice and a pinch of salt and cook over a high heat until tender, 12 minutes. Drain and set aside.
