Preparation

Roast the cauliflower & onion

Preheat the oven to 450°F. Peel and cut the onion into ½ inch wedges. On a lined sheet pan, toss the cauliflower (halve if large) and onion with a drizzle of oil, ⅓ of the spices and S&P. Roast, stirring halfway, 18 to 20 min., until lightly browned and tender.

Mise en place

Meanwhile, mince the garlic. Halve the tomatoes. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, ¼ of the garlic and S&P.

Start the skillet

In a large, high-sided, oven-safe pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the rice, tomato paste, and remaining garlic and spices. Cook, stirring frequently, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add 1 ¼ cups water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Cover, transfer to the oven and bake, 8 to 10 min., until the rice is partially cooked.

Finish the skillet

When the rice is partially cooked, remove from the oven, stir and add the tomatoes. Cover and bake, 8 to 10 min., until the rice is tender. Remove from the oven and add the spinach; stir well.
