This is adapted from a recipe by Karen Martini . It can be served as a complete meal or as a side. As a side it would serve 6 to 8 . It is similar to a risotto but while the rice and spice are cooked in the TMX bowl, it is finished off in a dish in the Varoma.
It is a very handy dish to serve to visitors as the finished dish can be taken to the table in the dish it is cooked in.

3 eggs
60g melted butter

I've had my eye on this recipe for awhile, so I made it for our dinner tonight.
I had some cooked prawns in the freezer, so I defrosted those and added them with the peas. My dish was round and tall, not long like Cookies, so I couldn't fit in all the rice. I had to steam it at the end for 20 minutes instead of 10, but I'm sure this was due to the shape of the dish and the prawns. Next time I'd add more curry powder and a chilli or two, as we like our food quite hot and spicy.
I served it with yoghurt, chilli sauce and pappadums. We both enjoyed it, thanks for the recipe.

Katie, Glad you tried this recipe and added the extras. I must say this is not one of my favourite dishes as there is too much rice to the other ingredients. Think you may have solved this problem.
