Easy & quick Lentils recipe (Vegan)

By

Here’s another super easy and delicious recipe (Vegan of course) for you to try out. This is basically one way of cooking Lentils in an Indian way. I grew up eating this every week and this lentil (daal in hindi) is my favorite daal so far. Here’s what you need for it

1 cup brown Lentils

2 tomatoes

1 red onion

1 tsp cumin seeds

1 pinch of hing (asoefetida)

1 tsp curry powder

1 tsp red chilli powder

2 Tbsp olive oil

1 tsp garam masala (it’s okay if you don’t have it)

1 tbsp lemon juice

Salt to taste

Wash your lentils until the water gets clear. Boil it – in a pot or a cooker. Chop the onion and the tomatoes in small pieces. Take a pan. Add oil to it. Add the cumin seeds once the oil is hot. Add the hing and add the onions. After 2-3 minutes, add the tomatoes and let the mixture cook on low heat for 5 minutes. Add salt, curry powder, chili powder and cooked daal. Let it cook for 10 minutes on low heat. Finally add garam masala and your lemon. Eat it as a soup or serve it rice, couscous, or Bulgur. It’s going to fit with everything. 😊
