Vegan Indian food: The curry thread
1 C Long grain brown rice (or whatever rice you prefer)
2 - 3 C water
1 tsp Indian curry
2 - 3 Tbs Hummus
Boil the rice until done, and when most of the water has been absorbed and evaporated stir in the curry . Mix it around real good until there are no bloches left. Spoon on 2 or 3 tablespoons of Hummus until you reach the desired consitency and flavor. Dump it on a plate and eat it.
This would probably also be good with freshly squeezed lemon, and chopped herbs. This really satisfied my craving for curry!
