Creamy Coconut Spiced Lentils with Crispy Roasted Sweet Potatoes
Enjoy a delightful plate of creamy, spiced lentils enriched with light coconut milk and punctuated by crispy roasted sweet potatoes and a sprinkle of roasted chickpeas. This dish blends warm spices with a touch of tropical creaminess for a comforting, nutrient-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 cups cooked green lentils (~300g)
½ medium sweet potato (~100g), cubed
¼ cup light coconut milk (~60g)
⅓ cup roasted chickpeas (~50g)
1 garlic clove
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp ground turmeric
¼ tsp ground coriander
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
Salt and pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the cubed sweet potato with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, then spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes until crispy on the edges.
In a medium saucepan, warm a small splash of water over medium heat. Sauté the minced garlic, grated ginger, ground cumin, turmeric, and coriander until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the cooked lentils and add the light coconut milk. Let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Once the sweet potatoes are done roasting, gently fold them into the lentil mixture or serve them on the side.
Top the dish with the roasted chickpeas for an extra crunchy texture and additional protein.
Serve warm and enjoy this hearty, comforting dish.
