Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup red lentils
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium carrots, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 medium plum tomatoes, chopped
2 cups vegetable stock
½ (14 ounce) can coconut milk
2 tablespoons red curry paste
2 teaspoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon chili powder

Steps:

  • Rinse lentils with cold water until water runs clear. Drain and set aside.
  • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add carrots and onion. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to help vegetables release their liquid. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes and another pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Stir in vegetable stock and lentils. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer, stirring every so often, for 45 minutes. Stir in coconut milk, curry paste, curry powder, cumin, and chili powder. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my curry turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much coconut milk.

This curry is a bit too time-consuming for a weeknight meal. I would recommend making it on the weekend when you have more time.
