Step 1

Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onionn and cook gently for 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and chilli flakes and cook for a few minutes.

Step 2

Add the garam masala and cook for 1 minute.

Step 3

Add the lentils, tomatoes (with their juice), coconut milk and stock, then stir to combine.

Step 4

Season with salt and pepper and cook on medium/low heat for 15-20 minutes until reduced and thick. If you have time you can leave it a little longer on a very low heat for even more flavour (just stir often and check it doesn't scorch the bottom of the pan). Taste and add more chilli if desired.

Step 5

Stir in lemon juice and spinach until it wilts.

Step 6

Serve warm with rice, naan bread or poppadoms.
