Indian Chickpea Rice Casserole
(Adapted from Veg Times)

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons oil
2 tablespoons mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
3/4 cup chopped red onion
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 1/4 cups vegetable broth
1 cup brown jasmine rice
1 cup canned chickpeas
1/3 cup dried currants
1 medium carrot, peeled and shredded
1/3 cup chopped cilantro
1/3 cup coarsely chopped cashews

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350

In a large dutch oven, heat oil over medium. Add mustard and cumin seeds. Stir until the seeds begin to pop - 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer to a small bowl.

Place pot back over medium and heat remaining oil. Add onion and ginger - cook, stirring often, until the onions begin to soften - about 4-6 minutes. Mix in the popped mustard and cumin seeds, broth, rice, chickpeas, currants and carrot.

Firmly cover and bake until the rice is tender and the broth is absorbed, roughly 45-60 minutes. Sprinkle with cilantro and cashews before serving.
