Cooking Steps

Prepare
1

Prepare the stock. Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic. Deseed and finely chop the red chili pepper.* Drain the lentils. 

*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.

Fry the aromatics
2

Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the onion, garlic, ginger paste and chili pepper for 3 - 4 minutes, or until the onion is translucent and the garlic is golden-brown.

Fry the lentils
3

Stir in the lentils and the yellow curry spices and continue frying for 6 - 7 minutes. Use a potato masher or the back of a ladle to roughly squash the lentils in the pan.

Make the curry
4

Add the stock, the turmeric and the coconut milk. Mix well so as to ensure the pan is thoroughly deglazed, then bring to a boil. Allow to simmer for around 10 minutes, or until thickened and reduced (see Tip). Stir in the spinach and allow to wilt and reduce.

Tip: add a splash of water as necessary if the curry is too thick.

Bake the pita
5

Preheat the oven to 200°C and bake the pita for 6 - 8 minutes until golden-brown. You can also use a toaster if preferred.

Serve
6

Cut the pita into smaller pieces. Serve the curry on deep plates, topped with the yogurt. Crumble over the Greek-style cheese and serve the pita on the side.
