INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup red lentils (100g)
100g firm tofu
1 cup mixed roasted vegetables (150g)
1/4 cup light coconut milk (60g)
1 cup vegetable broth
1 medium onion
2 garlic cloves
1 tsp olive oil
1 tsp curry powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp turmeric
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water and set aside.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Toss the mixed vegetables with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast on a baking sheet for 20-25 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
Dice the onion and mince the garlic. In a medium pot, heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat and sauté the onion until translucent. Add the garlic, curry powder, cumin, and turmeric, stirring for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the red lentils and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15 minutes until the lentils begin to break down.
Cube the firm tofu and add it to the pot along with the light coconut milk. Stir gently and simmer for an additional 5-7 minutes to let the flavors meld. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fold in the roasted vegetables, gently mixing them with the curry. Simmer for another 2 minutes to warm through.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
