Lentil Curry - Mega Flavour Lentil Recipe!

Step 1

Saute onion: Melt butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and ginger. Slowly cook, stirring every now and then, for 10 minutes until tinged with gold and the onion is sweet.

Step 2

Cook off spices: Turn heat up to high, add curry powder and turmeric, stir for 1 1/2 minutes.

Step 3

Add everything else: Add remaining ingredients and stir. Bring to simmer, then place lid on and adjust heat to low / medium low so it's simmering gently.

Step 4

Simmer: Simmer for 30 minutes, then remove lid and simmer for a further 10 minutes to reduce the sauce. {Note 2 for cook times of other lentils}

Step 5

Lentils should be soft, sauce should be thickened and creamy. Too thick, add water. Too thin, simmer with lid off - thickens quickly.

Step 6

Coriander: Stir through half the coriander, then taste and add more salt if needed.

Step 7

Serve over basmati rice, sprinkled with more coriander and a dollop of yogurt. (Low carb option - cauliflower rice).
