INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Red Lentils
1/2 cup canned Chickpeas
75 grams Extra-firm Tofu
1/3 cup Light Coconut Milk
1/2 cup canned Diced Tomatoes
1 cup fresh Spinach
1/4 medium Red Onion
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Fresh Ginger
2 tsp mixed Curry Powder, Turmeric, Cumin, and Salt
PREPARATION
Rinse the red lentils under cold water and set aside. If using dry lentils, cook them until tender and drain.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and add the diced red onion, garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté until fragrant and the onions are translucent.
Add the mixed spices (curry powder, turmeric, cumin, and salt) to the pan, stirring for about 30 seconds to bloom the flavors.
Pour in the diced tomatoes and light coconut milk, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Add the cooked red lentils, chickpeas, and diced extra-firm tofu into the pan. Simmer for 5-7 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Fold in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot, garnished with a sprinkle of fresh herbs if desired.
