Ingredients
- 1 cup long-grain brown rice
- 3/4 teaspoon salt (preferably kosher), divided
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 4 scallions, white and green parts separated and sliced
- 1 small hot red chile (like cayenne), chopped

- 4 cups trimmed, halved green beans
- 3 plums, pitted and cut into small wedges

Turn off heat; leave covered. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook scallion whites, chile, ginger, curry, black pepper and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, stirring, 2 minutes.

Add plums, bell pepper and coconut milk; cook and stir until colors are bright and sauce is thick, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in cashews. Divide plum-green bean mixture among 4 plates.
