This recipe uses only rice for the filling, no meat, but what an environment: celery, garlic, and cauliflower add juiciness to the rice, and spices — cumin and garam masala — add brightness to the taste. The recipe was invented by our recipe editor Vera Zheleznyak — we call such dishes "utilisotto" in the editorial office. In this case, the pepper can be a receptacle for stale tomatoes that have lost their marketable appearance, wilted greens, carrots left over from soup, and even the day before yesterday's rice. In winter, frozen vegetables can take the place of fresh vegetables. Absolutely any vegetable set is acceptable, based on the contents of your refrigerator, because the spices will still do their spicy job and bring the taste of the rice to the desired degree of piquancy.
