INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup dry Red Lentils (100g)
1/3 cup lite Coconut Milk (approx. 80g)
1/4 cup canned Chickpeas (40g)
1/2 cup Diced Tomatoes (120g)
1 cup fresh Spinach (30g)
1/4 medium Yellow Onion (25g)
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Ground Turmeric
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Ground Coriander
1 tbsp chopped Fresh Cilantro
Salt to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water until the water runs clear.
Finely chop the onion and garlic. In a medium saucepan, sauté the onion and garlic over medium heat until softened and fragrant.
Add the rinsed lentils to the saucepan along with 1.5 cups of water. Bring to a simmer.
Stir in the ground turmeric, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Allow the spices to bloom for about a minute.
Mix in the diced tomatoes and reduce the heat to low, letting the lentils cook until soft, about 15-20 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the lentils are tender, fold in the canned chickpeas and lite coconut milk. Simmer gently for an additional 5 minutes.
Just before serving, stir in the fresh spinach until wilted. Season with salt to taste.
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve warm.
