Ingredients
1 cup Lentils 1 cup, chopped Onions, raw 2 1tsp Canola Oil 4 clove Garlic 3 tsp Ginger Root 1 tbsp Curry powder 3 cup (8 fl oz) Water, tap 1.5 tsp Better than Bullion Vegetarian Base (by NIRO_DAN)
Directions
Heat oil in pot over medium heat. Chop onion and add to pot and stir. Grate ginger and garlic. Once onions have wilted and become translucent--about 5 minutes--add ginger, garlic and curry powder. Stir constantly for about a minute, allowing the spices to bloom and until ginger and garlic are fragrant. Add water. At this point you can add lentils, but I recommend rinsing well and then adding. Bring all to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer. Allow to cook for about 15 minutes, or until lentils are creamy. Add bullion paste (the Better than Bullion No-Chicken work very well here) and stir well. Add red pepper flakes for a little extra heat if you like. Serve with your favorite rice.
