Preheat the oven to 220°C. Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the sliced Onion for 3-4 minutes until soft, shifting occasionally. Add the curry spice, the grated garlic, and ½ of the chopped chilli (to taste). Fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the tomato passata, the potato chunks, and 50ml of water. Simmer for 12-15 minutes until reduced and thickening.
CRISPY Lentils
Place the drained Lentils on a roasting tray. Toss in a drizzle of oil and some seasoning, and spread them out in a single layer. Roast in the hot oven for 12-15 minutes until crispy.
JEERA RICE
Place a pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the cumin seeds and fry until the seeds begin to pop and splutter. Add in the remaining chopped chilli (to taste) and the rinsed rice. Toast the rice in the pan for 1-2 minutes then stir through 225ml of salted water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 8-10 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Keeping the lid on, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes. Drain if necessary, add ½ of the chopped coriander to the pot, and fluff up with a fork.
