Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 large brown onion thinly sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Indian curry paste Choose based o the heat you prefer. I used Korma.
  • 1 cup dried red lentils rinse well
  • 750ml of vegetable stock
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1 whole cauliflower cut into florets
  • 2 cups frozen peas
  • a small handful of coriander leaves roughly chopped (this is optional)

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and the curry paste, then cook until the onion is translucent.
  • Add the washed lentils, and stir so they are coating in the curry paste.
  • Add the stock and tomato paste then bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and add a lid. Simmer for 15min.
  • Next, add the cauliflower, increase the heat slightly and return the lid. Cook covered for another 10min until the cauliflower is tender.
  • Finally, add the frozen peas and stir through, add the lid back on for another couple of minutes until tender, then add your coriander (if using).
  • Serve with rice and poppadums. Enjoy!
