Can't believe I haven't blogged this recipe yet - it's a staple in our house and a regular request from Lex. It's thicker than restaurant dhals but I like it like this and it can act as a sandwich filler the next day too...
8oz red lentils
1 pint veggie stock
1 small bay leaf
1 onion chopped
1 green pepper chopped (don't always use this)
1 garlic clove crushed (we always use 4 or 5 lol)
½ tsp ground cumin
½ tsp tumeric
½ tsp chilli powder
½ tsp ground corriander
Fresh chopped corriander to serve (optional)
Crispy fried onion rings to serve (optional)
1. Place lentils, stock and bay leaf in a pan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 mins or so till cooked. Remove the bayleaf and beat lentils till smooth.
2. Meanwhile saute the onion and garlic in a pan in a little oil/ghee/butter. When soft add the pepper and the spices. Gently fry for 10 mins or so.
3. Add onion mix to the lentils, mix thoroughly and serve :)
Yummy yummy!!
