Thai lentils with broccoli and carrots

One can traditional coconut milk
One jar Thai Kitchen red curry paste
one large head of broccoli cut up into bite size pieces (peeled stems included)
several medium carrots sliced thick
one and a half cups of red lentils - uncooked/dried (makes approximately 6 cups)
6 cups of water

I use this as a veggie filling for shepherd's pie (using sweet potatoes) and the curry flavor goes very well with the sweet of the sweet potato!

place the lentils and water in a large pot and simmer over medium high until almost done.
Toss in the broccoli and carrots and mix up well, continue to simmer, letting the water cook off/be absorbed
Before it begins to stick to the bottom of the pan, add the can of coconut milk and the jar of curry paste, mix well and let it bubble up again. Once it is cooked down to your liking and the veggies are as done (or not) as you like, serve over a carb.
