Instructions

Step 1
Bring a pan of water to the boil. Add the rice, stir well and return to a simmer. Cook for 12–15 minutes until tender, then drain and return to the pan to steam.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat a large, wide, lidded pan until hot. Add the oil and onions and stir well, then cover and cook over a medium heat for 5–6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and just coloured.
Step 3
Stir in the garlic and curry powder and cook for a minute, then add the tomatoes and coconut milk, stir well and bring to the boil. Stir in the lentils and chickpeas and return to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes until slightly thickened.
Step 4
Stir in the spinach leaves, mango chutney, lime zest and juice with half the coriander and cook for another minute until the spinach wilts.
Step 5
Scatter the remaining coriander over the top and serve with the rice.
