-
2 tbsp vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
Coarse sea salt or kosher salt

1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
1 large or 2 small garlic cloves, chopped
1 tbsp curry powder
1 bay leaf
1 ˝ cups red lentils
Directions
1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. In a saucepan or kettle, bring 3 ˝ cups of water to a boil.
