Cilantro Chutney (recipe follows)

Cut pork tenderloins into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes. Set aside.
In a food processor or blender, puree the yogurt, onion, cilantro, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, paprika, curry powder, coriander, cumin, and cayenne. Transfer 1/2 cup (120 ml) of the yogurt mixture to a medium bowl, cover, and chill. Pour remaining yogurt mixture over pork and toss to coat. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
Blanch cauliflower in a pot of boiling water until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Drain and refresh under running cold water. Add the cauliflower to the reserved 1/2 cup (120 ml) yogurt mixture. Cover and continue to chill until ready to cook.
Light a grill or preheat the broiler. Thread red bell peppers, pork, and cauliflower onto metal skewers. Grill until pork is cooked through, about 7 to 8 minutes per side, turning once.
Spoon 1/2 cup (98 g) of the hot rice onto each of 6 servings dishes. Top with pork skewers. Serve with Cilantro Chutney
