INGREDIENTS
75g dry red lentils
125g extra firm tofu, cubed
1/4 cup cooked chickpeas
1/4 cup light coconut milk
1/2 medium yellow onion
1 garlic clove
1 inch fresh ginger
1 small tomato
1 teaspoon curry powder
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper
1 cup water
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly under cold water and set aside.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the chopped half onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent and aromatic.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the tomato (chopped) and allow it to soften slightly.
Mix in the red lentils, cubed tofu, and chickpeas. Pour in the water and light coconut milk, stirring well to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat, cover, and let it cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until the lentils have softened and the flavors meld together.
Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the curry becomes too thick, add a splash more water.
Serve warm and enjoy this hearty, protein-rich curry.
