INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked red lentils (198g)
1/2 cup light coconut milk (120g)
125g firm tofu
1 tbsp tomato paste (16g)
1 small onion (70g)
1 tbsp red curry paste (15g)
1 cup fresh spinach (30g)
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp fresh ginger
Pinch of salt
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly and set aside if cooking from dry. If using pre-cooked, measure 1 cup.
In a medium saucepan, heat a small splash of water over medium heat and sauté the chopped onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger until softened and fragrant.
Stir in the red curry paste and tomato paste, allowing them to combine with the onions and garlic for another minute.
Add the cooked red lentils, light coconut milk, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to mix all the spices and ingredients.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and let it cook for about 8-10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Cube the firm tofu and gently incorporate it into the curry, simmering for an additional 5 minutes so the tofu absorbs some of the curry flavors.
Fold in the fresh spinach just before serving, letting it wilt into the warm curry.
Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve hot and enjoy your creamy, protein-packed red lentil curry.
