If it is an Indian style curry, noddles just don't work for me I am afraid, it would be rice (ideally, it would actually be rice and naan bread, but those are my piggy tendencies!)

In terms of which rice, I like white basmati rice (I don't care for the brown basmati rice), but I am also fine with regular white rice - no it is probably not as nutritionally as good for me as brown or wild rice, but I am not a fan of either. I do quite like the additional flavours of a pilaf, which I've had made with basmati and other long grain white rice.
