INGREDIENTS
100g Red Lentils
1/3 cup Lite Coconut Milk (~80g)
50g Firm Tofu
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes
1/4 medium Yellow Onion
1 Garlic Clove
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Curry Powder
1 tsp Turmeric
1 tsp Cumin
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water and drain.
In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, and grated ginger, and sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the curry powder, turmeric, and cumin, cooking for about 1 minute until the spices are fragrant.
Add the red lentils and diced tomatoes to the pot, then pour in water (approximately 2 cups) to cover the lentils. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Allow the lentils to cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and begin to break down.
Cube the firm tofu and gently stir it into the curry during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
Pour in the lite coconut milk, stir well, and let the curry simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Serve warm, garnished with extra fresh herbs if desired.
