  1. BEFORE YOU GET GOING

    Read the whole recipe. You’ll find the ingredient prep instructions displayed in the ingredient list, directly under the item they apply to.

  2. ROAST ’TATERS

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the Potato pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, half of the Tandoori Rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven for 25-30 minutes until cooked through and crispy, shifting halfway.

  3. GET THE DHAL GOING

    When the potatoes have reached the halfway mark, place a large pot over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add in the diced Onion, the grated Ginger, and a pinch of salt. Fry for 2-3 minutes until the onion is soft and translucent, shifting occasionally. Add the remaining Tandoori Rub (to taste) and the Spice & Stock Mix to the pan and fry for about a minute, stirring continuously. Add the rinsed red split lentils, pour in 250ml of water, and bring to a simmer. Once simmering, reduce to a low-medium heat and pop on a lid. Allow to cook for 8-10 minutes until the lentils are soft, only stirring every now and then.

  4. TOASTY Pistachios & CRISPY SULTANAS

    While the lentils are simmering, place the Pistachios and sultanas in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until the pistachios are starting to brown and the sultanas are crisping up, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool.

  5. FINISHING TOUCHES

    Once the lentils are cooked and the tandoori potatoes are roasted, add the oat milk and the shredded Spinach to the pot of dhal. Bring back to a simmer and pop on the lid. Cook for 1-2 minutes to allow the spinach to wilt into the sauce. Season to taste and remove from the heat on completion.

  6. DISH UP & DIG IN

    Serve up some hearty spoonfuls of lentil dhal. Top it off with the tandoori roast potatoes and the crispy Pistachios and sultanas. Garnish with a sprinkling of fresh, chopped parsley. Divine, Chef!
