- Salt to taste
- 1 teaspoon cashew masala powder

Instructions
- Rinse 1 cup of uncooked rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium saucepan, add the rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15-18 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes.
- In a large skillet, cook the Spinach & Feta Sausages over medium heat until they are browned and cooked through. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside. Once slightly cooled, slice them into bite-sized pieces.
- In the same skillet, add the tomato sauce, coconut milk, red chili powder, salt, cashew masala powder, and vegetable bouillon paste. Stir well to combine and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
- Add the drained chickpeas and the sliced sausages to the curry base. Stir to coat everything evenly with the sauce. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Taste the curry and adjust the salt and chili powder as needed.
- Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and divide it between two plates or bowls. Spoon the curry over the rice and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
