Sweet + Spicy Crispy Rice, with Kabocha Squash and Kale

  • 2 cups pre cooked (leftover) rice (white, jasmine or basmati are faves)
  • 2 tsp red curry paste 
  • 2 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tbsp olive oil 
  • 2 tsp fish sauce or vegan fish sauce (optional)
  • Pinch of sea salt 
This is the perfect dish for leftover rice. In fact, it's best with leftover rice! Mix all ingredients and spread thinly on a baking sheet. Bake on 350 for 25 minutes. Stir halfway. 
1 head of kale, stems removed, chopped and lightly steamed (5 min)
1 small kabocha squash, seeded and cut into 1 in pieces . Sprinkle with a little sea salt and steam for about 10 minutes until soft enough to be pierced with a fork, but not mushy. 
Honey Mustard Dressing//
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp honey 
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 clove garlic, grated
  • 1/4 cup olive oil 
Whisk cider vinegar together with all ingredients except olive oil. Add olive oil and whisk until well combined.
