Ingredients
Method
Ingredients
- 50g butter
- 1 onion (finely chopped)
- 1tsp Bart Turmeric
- 1tsp Bart Ground Cumin
- 1tsp Bart Chilli Flakes
- 2tsp Bart Garlic Paste
- 225g red lentils (dried)
- 300ml coconut milk
- 600ml water
- 2tbsp oil
- 1 Bart Cinnamon Stick
- 2tsp Bart Cumin Seeds
- 1tsp Bart Poppy Seeds
Method
- Heat the butter in a large saucepan. Add the onion and cook for 10 minutes until soft. Stir in the turmeric, cumin and chilli and cook for 2 minutes then add the garlic, lentils, coconut milk and 600ml water.
- Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 40 minutes. The lentils should be soft and should have absorbed most of the liquid. For a more “soupy” consistency, add more water. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a warm serving dish.
- Heat the oil in a small frying pan. Add the cinnamon stick, cumin seeds and poppy seeds and allow to sizzle for a few seconds then pour over the dhal.
