Instructions

Step 1

In a pot over low heat, pour in the vegetable stock, whole garlic cloves, lentils, turmeric and black pepper. Cover with a lid and let simmer for 10 minutes until the lentils have softened.

Step 2

Heat a pan with some oil over medium heat. Cook the onions until slightly soft, then add in the mustard seed, fennel seed, curry powder, curry leaves and dried chili. Cook until fragrant, 2 minutes.

Step 3

Add in the tomato, carrot and potato. Stir-fry for 5 minutes, until the tomatoes soften completely.

Step 4

Pour everything into the pot with the lentils and season with salt and sugar. Cover with a lid and let simmer for 25 minutes, until the carrots and potatoes are soft. Stir every so often to prevent the bottom from burning. You can add more water if it's too thick.

Step 5

Serve warm with cilantro and carb of your choice. Enjoy!
