Ingredients
- Ingredients
- 1 large onion
- 3 Tbsps ginger
- 2 garlic cloves
- 4 Tbsps vegetable oil
- 1 tsp Turmeric
- 1 tsp ground Cumin
- 10 ozs Red Lentils
- 24 ozs Vegetable broth
- 1 bunch parsley
- salt
- peppers
- 2 Tbsps lemon juice
Preparation steps
Peel the onion and ginger and finely dice both. Remove the garlic and grind with salt. Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Sauté the onion and ginger, add the garlic and cook for about 3 minutes. Sprinkle with turmeric and cumin and sauté briefly. Add the lentils, saute briefly and pour in the vegetable broth. Bring everything to a boil and simmer over medium heat 10-12 minutes until the lentils have absorbed all the liquid.
Meanwhile, rinse the parsley, shake dry and coarsely chop. Mix some of the parsley with the lemon juice and add to the lentils, and season with salt and pepper. Spoon the red lentil dal into bowls and serve garnished with parsley.
Serve one cup basmati rice with each portion.
