INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked red lentils (200g)
100g chickpeas (cooked)
100g firm tofu, diced
60 ml light coconut milk
1 medium onion, chopped (70g)
1 medium carrot, diced (61g)
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup diced tomatoes (100g)
1 cup fresh spinach
1 cup vegetable broth
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Heat a medium pot over medium heat and add a splash of water or a light oil spray if desired.
Sauté the chopped onion, diced carrot, and minced garlic until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the ground cumin, turmeric, and smoked paprika. Stir for about 30 seconds to toast the spices.
Mix in the diced tofu and cook for another 2 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Pour in the red lentils, chickpeas, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, and light coconut milk.
Stir the mixture well, then bring it to a simmer. Allow the stew to cook on low heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the lentils are tender.
In the final 2 minutes of cooking, add the fresh spinach and mix until wilting.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve warm.
