Step 1
Finely slice the shallots. Trim the green beans. Halve the tomatoes. Roughly chop the coriander.
Step 2
Heat a medium frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium heat. Add half the shallots and cook for 3 mins. Add the tomatoes and garam masala. Cook for 1-2 mins, until softening
Step 3
Heat another medium frying pan with 1/2 tsp oil on medium heat. Add the remaining shallots and cook for 4 mins.
Step 4
To the tomato pan, add the chana dal lentils, coconut milk and half the tamari. Simmer for 4-5 mins, until the sauce has thickened. In the final minute, rinse the spinach and stir into the lentils, along with half the coriander. Season with sea salt and black pepper to taste.

To the shallot pan, add the green beans and 100ml water (50ml for 1 person).
