Instructions
- Add rice, stock powder and 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) water to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.

- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- Strip leaves from cilantro stems. Thinly slice stems, then roughly chop leaves, keeping stems and leaves separate.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp butter (2 tbsp) then, mirepoix, cilantro stems and pork. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook, breaking up pork into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 4-5 min.**
- Add Dal Spice Blend to the pork. Cook, stirring to coat, 1 min.
- Add tikka sauce and cream cheese. Cook, stirring often, until cream cheese melts, 1 min.
- Add 1 cup (1 1/2 cups) water to the pan. Cook, stirring often, until sauce comes to a simmer.
- When simmering, cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 5-6 min.
- Add spinach. Cook, stirring gently, until spinach wilts, 1 min. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Add cilantro leaves and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to the pot with rice. Fluff with a fork until butter melts.
