PREPARATION

  • 1

    Rinse the red lentils thoroughly under cold water and set aside.

  • 2

    Press the tofu lightly to remove excess moisture, then cut it into small cubes.

  • 3

    Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add a small splash of water or broth (instead of oil) to sauté the chopped onions until soft and translucent.

  • 4

    Add minced garlic and grated ginger to the onions and sauté briefly until aromatic.

  • 5

    Stir in the turmeric, cumin, and coriander powders. Toast the spices for about 30 seconds to enhance their flavor.

  • 6

    Add the red lentils, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, and light coconut milk to the saucepan. Stir to combine.

  • 7

    Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 15 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

  • 8

    In the last 5 minutes of cooking, gently add in the cubed tofu and cooked chickpeas, allowing them to heat through and absorb some of the flavors.

  • 9

    Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust any spices as needed.

  • 10

    Serve the dal hot, garnished with fresh herbs if available. Enjoy the comforting, creamy flavors!
