Maqluba with cauliflower

Cauliflower maqluba is a preparation of the layered rice dish maqluba. Fatimah’s chicken recipe combines cauliflower florets and sliced potatoes with jasmine rice and chicken. Tomato slices may be placed at the bottom of the pot before the chicken, vegetables and seasoned rice.[1]

The chicken is cooked with onion, garlic, cinnamon, cardamom, ground coriander and spice blends; its strained broth is used to cook the rice. The vegetables can be deep-fried, air-fried or baked. Once the rice has cooked, the pot is inverted onto a large plate so the layers are revealed.[1]
