Remarks
For success with this recipe, it's important that leeks stay a pretty green and are not overcooked, it's more attractive and tastier. That's why the lid is removed when they go in the pan as the last vegetables.

You can use a different kind of rice: apart from Thaï, there's Basmati, Italian, Camargue, etc.
Keeping: Several days in the fridge, in a closed jar.
Source: Home made.

Roasting cauliflower in the oven is a delicious way to enjoy the vegetable: golden-brown on the outside and melt-in-the-mouth inside. In this recipe, the cauliflower is blanched first, then brushed with herb butter before roasting in the oven.
