Serves 4
Ingredients
- 1 onion, sliced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp ginger, minced
- 1 tsp turmeric
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp coriander
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp garam masala

- 1 ½ cups red lentils
- 1 can chopped tomatoes
- 3 cups water or vegetable stock
- ½ cup EasiYo Natural Yogurt
- 1-2 tsp black sesame seeds (optional)
- 2 Tbsp fresh coriander, chopped (optional)
Method
- Heat oil in a large pot on a medium heat. Cook onions, garlic and ginger until soft.
- Add spices and salt and cook for a further 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Rinse lentils under cold water, drain and add to pan. Stir lentils to coat with spiced onion mixture. Add tomatoes and water/stock and mix well.
- Leave uncovered and cook over a low heat for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are cooked through.
- Remove from the heat and add a few spoonful’s of the dahl to a bowl. Whisk in yogurt and then combine mixture to the remaining dahl until fully combined; this will ensure the yogurt does not separate.
