Easy veggie biryani

Ingredients

• 250g Basmati rice
• 400g Special mixed frozen vegetables
• a generous handful Raisins
• 1 Vegetable stock cube
• 2 tbsp Korma curry paste
• a generous handful Roasted salted cashew nuts

Method

1. 1Boil the kettle. Get out a large microwaveable bowl and pile in the rice, veg and raisins.
2. 2Pour 600ml boiling water over the rice mixture and crumble in the stock cube, then stir in the curry paste. Cover the bowl with cling film, leaving a small gap at the side to let out the steam. Cook on full power (850 watts) for 12 minutes (add 2 minutes if your microwave is less powerful).
3. 3Remove from the microwave and stand, still covered, for 5 minutes to complete the cooking. Fluff up the rice, scatter with cashews and serve.
