Creamy Curry Pork And Rice Bake
If you are a curry lover then please give this a try, i have made this many times in the past, it is delicious! I like to add in spinach but that is only optional. I have only used basmati rice for this dish (i purchase a 12 ounce box of basmati rice) but you may use white uncooked rice also, personally i really think that this dish is worth making with basmati only. To make this extra special sprinkle i have sprinkled it with toasted almonds before serving. Use a good-quality coconut milk for this! This can also be made with cubed chicken breast, but pork is better, and the complete recipe can be doubled, you might want to cut the water back by 1/4 cup if you are doubling the recipe use only 3/4 cup water.
