INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup dried red lentils (approx. 100g)
1/2 cup cooked chickpeas (approx. 82g)
1 cup diced tomatoes (240g)
1/2 medium onion, diced (50g)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup fresh spinach
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 cup vegetable broth
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (for garnish)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils and set aside. In a medium pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat and sauté the diced onion until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and stir for an additional minute until fragrant.
Stir in the ground cumin, turmeric, and smoked paprika, cooking for about 30 seconds to bloom the spices.
Add the red lentils, diced tomatoes, chickpeas, and vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Let the stew simmer for 20-25 minutes until the lentils are soft and the stew has thickened. If the stew becomes too thick, add a splash of water or extra broth.
Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until just wilted, about 2 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve hot, garnished with a swirl of plain Greek yogurt for creaminess.
