Instructions

Step 1

A word of advice: Buy lentils that don't require pre-soaking. Red lentils are best for dahl. There are loads of options around. Wash them thoroughly in a colander before using them.

Step 2

Chop your onion & fry it off with the garlic & ginger over a medium heat until the onions are soft. Add the tomatoes to the pan stirring in.

Step 3

Mix your spices together in a pestle & mortar or a small bowl & add them to the pan with some salt & black pepper. Move around a little over a medium heat & then add the lentils & the liquids.

Step 4

Allow that to cook on low heat for around 35-40 mins. Moving around from time to time so it doesn't stick on the bottom. I chucked in some spinach at the end too. Serve up with fresh coriander & a side of just cooked crispy green veggies.
