Visually, this is beautiful. I found the flavour a bit lacking in something, but not sure what it is. The recipe is easy to make and would be excellent as part of a curry buffet type dinner.

    We really enjoyed this..in fact, I'm still enjoying it, for my lunch! Everything cooked perfectly according to recipe, which I was pleased about, I like being able to put the lid on and leave it to its own devices, I found the texture of rice and carrot excellent, light and fluffy but still moist, and I found the flavour good, especially when teaming it with a flavourful curry, when the dishes need to complement each other. I did use sesame oil, perhaps that added a little zing too! Thanks for a great recipe, Amanda!
