INGREDIENTS
100g Red Lentils
60g Fresh Spinach
0.5 cup Light Coconut Milk
0.5 cup Tomato Puree
0.5 cup Plain Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 medium Yellow Onion
3 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
1 tsp Cumin Powder
1 tsp Turmeric Powder
1 tsp Coriander Powder
0.5 tsp Salt
2 cups Water
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a medium pot, heat a splash of water or a tiny drizzle of coconut milk over medium heat and add the chopped yellow onion. Sauté until the onion softens, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in minced garlic and grated fresh ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Add the cumin, turmeric, and coriander powders along with the red lentils. Stir to coat the lentils in the spices.
Pour in the tomato puree, light coconut milk, and water. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Allow the lentils to cook for about 20-25 minutes until they are tender and have absorbed most of the liquid. Stir occasionally.
Five minutes before finishing, add the fresh spinach and stir until it wilts into the curry.
Remove the pot from heat and stir in the plain nonfat Greek yogurt to add creaminess and extra protein.
Taste and adjust salt as needed, then serve warm.
