Heat oven to 180°C. Arrange the cauliflower on a baking tray. Toss with the oil, turmeric, cumin and season. Bake for 35-40mins until golden brown. Set aside.
Roast the cashews for 5mins until golden.
Meanwhile melt the butter in a large saucepan. Add the onion and sauté over a low heat until soft. Stir in the mustard seeds, cloves, cinnamon, garam masala, turmeric, peppercorns and bay leaf and gently cook for 1min. Add garlic and chilli, cook for 2mins, stirring frequently.
Stir in the rice and sultanas. Pour over enough salted water to cover rice by 2cm. Bring to the boil, cover and reduce the heat to a gentle simmer. Cook for 10mins, until the water is absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork.
Toss the cauliflower with the rice, and serve with the cashew nuts
