Step 1
Rinse lentils under running water. I prefer to soak the lentils for about 10-15 minutes in lukewarm water because they are better digested this way (this step is optional). Drain the water afterwards.
Step 2
Meanwhile, chop the onion, garlic, ginger, chili pepper, and carrot (*see recipe notes below). Heat oil in a pot, stir in the onion and fry for about 3-4 minutes over medium heat. Add soy sauce, carrot, garlic, ginger, chili and reduce the heat to low.
Step 3
Now add all spices (ground cumin, ground turmeric, ground coriander), red pepper flakes (optional), the lentils and 3 cups of vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and let simmer for about 15 minutes.
Step 4
Finally, add coconut milk and cook for a further 10 minute or until the desired thickness of the lentil dal is reached. Season with black pepper, salt, and Sunfood's Golden Milk Super Blend (*see recipe notes). Taste and adjust the seasonings as to your preference.
Step 5
Serve warm with basmati rice, potatoes, or naan bread (flatbread), garnish with fresh herbs.
