We really enjoyed this Indonesian rice bowl not only because of its flavorful red curry and coconut milk sauce, but also because of the colorful fresh veggies.  The lean ground beef cooks in the creamy broth along with a cinnamon stick and a pinch of nutmeg and ground cloves; the warming spices of the beef mixture are then served over white rice along with sliced cucumbers, cabbage, hot peppers, raw shallots and herbs.  A squeeze of lime juice and voila–dinner.
