Vegan Lentil Curry

A hearty and healthy dinner ready to serve in under 30 minutes!

 

This recipe (when served over rice) yields three hearty bowls.

Ingredients for Vegan Lentil Curry:

1/2 cup red lentils, rinsed well
1 tablespoon red curry paste
1 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon white sugar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon  ginger root, minced
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
2 large Roma tomatoes, diced
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
 
How to make Vegan Lentil Curry: 

Into a medium saucepan, add lentils to approximately 3 cups of water and simmer on low until tender, about 10 minutes.  Drain and set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the curry paste, curry powder, turmeric, cumin, chili powder, salt, sugar, garlic, and ginger; set aside.

Into a medium-size skillet over medium-high, heat the oil and cook onions until tender and slightly caramelized.

Stir in the curry mixture and tomatoes.  Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer 5-10 minutes.

Add the lentils and continue cooking another 5 minutes or so until heated through. 

Top with cilantro and serve hot.

 

Cheers!
