Instructions
 

  • Wash the lentils in cold water to remove any scum.

  • Leave cooking for about an hour or more , depending on your cooker .
  • Fry off all the spices and the onion and tomato in the butter and add to the lentils.
  • Continue cooking on high until everything reduces and looks like soup...this took an additional 30mins in my 1.5L slow cooker (which cooks hot so yours may need longer)

  • Makes enough for 2 people.

  1. I doubled the recipe and added 1 cup red and one cup brown lentils. I used a tin of crushed tomatoes and fried in a few curry leaves.
    If you’re not big on spicy, halve the chilli amount.
    Tastes fantastic!

  2. I made 2 batches of this- one with chilli and another without. I added paprika to the hot one so we could differentiate.
    Changed water to vegie stock and added crumbled up cauliflower in the last 15mins to add a bit more texture.
    Surprisingly very tastey, even hubby enjoyed it.
