Curried Lentils Veggies Recipes

Steps:

• Soak the lentils in cold water overnight.
• Combine all ingredients in a pot.
• Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, or until lentils are tender.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the onion for a few mins until softened. Add the spices and cook for 1 min, then stir in the lentils, sweet potatoes, stock and the cherry tomatoes.
• Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 20 mins until the lentils and sweet potatoes are tender. Add the beans and cook for 2 mins then stir in the yogurt and some seasoning. Sprinkle over the coriander and chopped cucumber if using and serve with naan bread and rice.

Steps:

• Rinse lentils and place in a saucepan with the water. Bring to a boil, then cover, and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes. Stir in the curry paste, coconut cream and season with salt to taste. Return to a simmer, and cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until tender.

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook onion with 1/4 teaspoon salt, stirring occasionally, until golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, purée ginger, garlic, and 1/3 cup water in a blender. Add purée to golden onion and cook, stirring, until water is evaporated and oil visibly separates from onion mixture, about 5 minutes. Add curry powder, turmeric, and cumin and cook over low heat, stirring, 1 minute. Stir in lentils and remaining 5 cups water and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Add carrots and remaining teaspoon salt and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until carrots are tender and lentils have broken down into a coarse purée, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Stir in spinach and peas and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until peas are tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in cilantro and season stew with salt and pepper. If necessary, add enough water to thin stew so that it can easily be ladled over rice.
• Just before serving, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a small skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook cumin seeds and red-pepper flakes, stirring, until fragrant and a shade darker, 30 to 45 seconds (be careful not to burn spices). Pour hot spice oil in a swirl over stew.

Steps:

• Bring lentils to boil in plenty of water to cover in covered pot. Cook about 10 minutes, until soft. Drain and reserve liquid.
• Peel and coarsely chop onion and saute with garlic in hot oil until soft.
• Reduce heat and add coriander, cumin, turmeric, chili powder, cardamom, cloves and cinnamon. Stir well.
• Add florets to the onion mixture with stock and tomato paste. Stir well to mix. Cover and cook until cauliflower is tender, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Stir in lentils, adding liquid from lentils if necessary to thin a little.
• Stir in cashews and serve with yogurt on the side.

Steps:

• Place lentils, rice, broth (I like chicken or vegetable broth), milk (we use soy milk), leek, garlic, carrots, and broccoli in large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook until veggies, lentils, and rice are tender. Add water or additional broth if necessary.
• And salt, curry paste (add to your taste), mango chutney, and honey (only sweeten to your taste) and simmer for a few more minutes, until the liquid is absorbed.
• We serve with olive oil (or canola) to drizzle over top and add a bit of salt.
