Cooking Instructions and Tips

1

Peel and very finely chop the onion and the garlic. Chop the cauliflower into bite-sized florets. Roughly chop the coriander. Chop the beans into thirds and discard the ends.

2

Heat a splash of oil in a large pot on medium-low heat. Add your onion and garlic and slowly cook for 5 mins. Season with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Tip: If the onion starts to brown turn the heat down a bit.

3

Once your onions are soft, add the curry powder and stir.

4

Stir in the tomato purée and then add the chopped tomatoes. Add another pinch of salt and a sprinkle of sugar (if you have some). Add the red lentils, the water (amount as stated in the ingredient list) and the vegetable stock pot. Bring to a gentle simmer, put a lid on and leave for 5 mins.

5

Remove the lid and add your cauliflower. Cook for around 10 mins or until your cauliflower is tender.

6

When your cauliflower is halfway through cooking add your green beans and cook for 5 more mins. Tip: Don’t worry if the dal is drying out a little – just add a bit more water to get a looser consistency.

7

Stir through your coriander and some of the yoghurt. Tip: At this stage it’s crucial to taste for seasoning - have a spoonful and add more salt and pepper to lift the flavours to their max!

8

Serve with a little more coriander and a nice big dollop of yoghurt.
