Cooking Steps

Prepare

  • Add the lentils to one pot, then cover with the lid. Cook for 11 - 13 minutes over medium-high heat or until done, then drain and set aside.

  • Add the turmeric and cook for 1 more minute, then drain. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then set aside.

  • Chop the onion and crush or mince the garlic. 
  • Heat the sunflower oil in a large deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the onion and garlic for 2 - 3 minutes.
  • Dice the tomato and add it to the pan, along with the ginger paste, curry spices, African-inspired spices and tomato paste. Crumble in the stock cube (see pantry for amount).
  • Mix well and fry for 2 more minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
