INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup dry Golden Lentils (100g)
1/4 cup Light Coconut Milk (60g)
1 cup Low-Sodium Vegetable Broth (240g)
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt (125g)
1/2 medium Onion (55g)
2 cloves Garlic (6g)
1 tsp Fresh Ginger, grated (2g)
1 tsp Ground Turmeric (3g)
1 tsp Ground Cumin (2.5g)
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped (8g)
1 tbsp Lemon Juice (15g)
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the golden lentils thoroughly and set aside.
In a medium pot, heat a splash of water over medium heat. Sauté the chopped half onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger until they soften and become fragrant.
Stir in the ground turmeric and cumin, cooking for an additional minute to release their aromas.
Add the rinsed lentils and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then lower the heat. Allow it to cook for about 20-25 minutes until the lentils are soft and starting to break down.
Stir in the light coconut milk and simmer gently for 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the nonfat Greek yogurt until the dal turns creamy. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Finish by stirring in fresh lemon juice and garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.
