INGREDIENTS
80g Red Lentils
75g Tempeh
1/3 cup Light Coconut Milk
1/3 cup Chickpeas
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 cup Mixed Roasted Vegetables (Bell Pepper & Zucchini)
1 serving Aromatics (Onion, Garlic, Ginger)
1 tsp Mixed Spices (Cumin, Turmeric, Curry Powder, Salt, Pepper)
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water and set them aside.
Dice the tempeh into small cubes and lightly sauté it in a pan until it gets a slight golden color.
Prepare a mix of chopped aromatics by finely dicing an onion, mincing garlic, and grating a small amount of ginger.
In a medium pot, heat a small amount of water or a splash of coconut milk and sauté the aromatics with the mixed spices (cumin, turmeric, curry powder, salt, and pepper) until fragrant.
Add the red lentils and enough water to cover them by about an inch. Bring to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes until the lentils begin to break down.
Stir in the light coconut milk and chickpeas, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes to meld the flavors.
Fold in the pre-sautéed tempeh and fresh baby spinach, stirring until the spinach wilts.
On a baking tray, toss the mixed vegetables (bell pepper and zucchini) with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast in a preheated oven at 400°F for about 15 minutes until tender and slightly charred.
Serve the creamy coconut lentil curry over or alongside the roasted vegetables. Enjoy warm!
