LET’S GET GOING
Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the lentil spice mix for about 1 minute until fragrant, shifting regularly. Add in the rinsed red split lentils, 250ml of boiling water, and a pinch of salt. Give a stir and bring to a simmer. Cook uncovered for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. If it starts to dry out, gradually add more water to continue the cooking process. On completion, the lentils should be cooked al dente and there should be a small amount of liquid remaining in the pot – don’t drain it, you’ll be needing it!
IT’S MINT TO BE
Pick the leaves off the rinsed coriander and roughly chop, setting the stems aside. Place in a bowl with the coconut yoghurt and mix to combine. Season and set aside for serving. Roughly slice the coriander stems. Finely slice the rinsed mint leaves. Set both aside.
JUICY LAMB
Place a pot over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add in the rinsed curry leaves, ¾ of the sliced Onion, the whole spices, and a pinch of salt. Fry for 4-5 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent. Add in the lamb mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Allow to caramelise for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
GET THE Onion GOLDEN
Place a small, clean pan over a high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the remaining Onion for 4-5 minutes until golden, shifting occasionally. Transfer to a bowl on completion, cover to keep warm, and set aside for serving.
DAHL-ICIOUS!
Once the mince is browned, stir through the grated Ginger, grated Garlic, ¾ of the mint, and ¾ of the coriander stems. Add the chopped Chilli to taste and fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove and discard the cinnamon stick, and add in the drained tinned lentils. Add in the cooked red split lentils, as well as any remaining liquid from the pot. Stir until combined, cover with a lid, and leave to simmer for 3 minutes. On completion, it should be thick and creamy. If too stiff, mix in water in 50ml increments until the desired consistency. Remove the pot from the heat.
