INGREDIENTS
100 grams Red Lentils
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1/2 medium Onion
1 medium Tomato
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Ginger
2 cups Fresh Spinach
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
1/2 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
1/4 teaspoon Chili Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils thoroughly under cold water and drain.
In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and let them sizzle for a few seconds.
Add the chopped half onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the pot; sauté until the onion softens, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the diced tomato, turmeric powder, and chili powder, cooking for another 2 minutes to release the flavors.
Add the red lentils and about 2 cups of water to the pot. Bring to a gentle simmer, then cover and let cook for 20-25 minutes until the lentils are soft and have broken down.
In the last 5 minutes of cooking, stir in the fresh spinach so it wilts into the dal.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the dal in bowls and top with a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt. Enjoy warm.
