Ingredients

• 1 cup basmati rice
• 2 cups mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, carrots, and peas)
• 1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
• 1 cup green beans, trimmed
• Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional)
• 4 pieces of store-bought flatbread

How to Make Vegetable Curry with Rice and Flatbread

1. Start by rinsing the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions, usually in 1.5 cups of water, until fluffy.
2. In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until translucent.
3. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
4. Add the mixed vegetables and green beans to the skillet. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, until they start to soften.
5. Sprinkle the curry powder over the vegetables and mix well, cooking for another minute to release its flavor.
6. Pour in the coconut milk and salt, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
7. While the curry simmers, heat the flatbread in a separate skillet or oven until warm and crispy.
8. Once the curry is ready, serve it hot over the cooked rice, garnishing with fresh cilantro if desired. Enjoy with the crispy flatbread on the side!

Tips for the Best Results
