INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked red lentils (198g)
1/2 cup cooked chickpeas (125g)
100g firm tofu
1/2 cup light unsweetened coconut milk (120g)
1/2 cup diced tomatoes (120g)
1/4 medium onion (40g)
2 garlic cloves
1 teaspoon fresh ginger
1 tablespoon mixed spices (cumin, turmeric, coriander, red chili)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 teaspoon olive oil
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger; sauté until the onion softens and becomes translucent.
Stir in the mixed spices and toast them for about 30 seconds to release their aroma.
Add the diced tomatoes, cooked red lentils, and chickpeas to the pot. Mix well.
Pour in the light coconut milk and add a splash of water if needed to adjust the consistency.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While the curry simmers, cut the firm tofu into 1-inch cubes and gently stir them into the curry during the last 5 minutes of cooking.
Season the curry with salt and pepper to taste, and adjust any spices if needed.
Serve hot, and enjoy this hearty, protein-packed, and creamy curry.
