Red Lentil Curry Posted on October 21, 2014May 2, 2025 By Becky I’m always partial to a bit of curry, especially now the nights are drawing in and there is a chill in the air. Since we try not to eat meat on a few days a week, we’re always looking for some tasty veggie options- and this dish fits the bill nicely. Serve with some warm flatbreads or fluffy rice! Red Lentil Curry You will need: 2 tablespoons Thai red curry paste 400g chopped tomatoes with basil & oregano 1 x 28g pack coriander, chopped 200g dried red lentils 500ml hot vegetable stock 1 cauilflower, broken into small florets 400g tin of chickpeas, rinsed 1 onion, peeled and finely chopped 2 tablespoons olive oil Instructions: Heat the olive oil in a deep skillet. Add the chopped onion and the coriander stalks and cook for 5 minutes, then stir through the Thai red curry paste. Add the dried red lentils and stock, and then simmer for 5 minutes. Stir in the chopped tomatoes, cauliflower and chickpeas and simmer for a further 10 minutes, or until the lentils are tender. Stir through half the coriander just before serving, and the use the rest for garnish. Linking up with Honest Mum’s ‘Tasty Tuesdays’!

Tomato and Basil Soup Posted on March 22, 2014March 21, 2016 Despite the recent decent weather being a much-needed respite from the storms of late (SUN!

Mains 15 Minute Thai Prawn Curry Posted on January 20, 2015August 13, 2021 There are oodles of recipes for Thai curries out there, but I haven’t come across that many before that are super-speedy, and that don’t require some element of ‘faff’.

Ooooh, this looks lovely. I’m not vegetarian but I don’t eat much meat at all, so I’m always looking for recipes packed with protien but no meat. Is it weird that lentils are one of my favourite foods? Them and pearl barley! x #TastyTuesdays Reply

How funny, my Mum literally made this yesterday and added chicken to it too-she also made a chickpea curry separately too but the pulses go so well together like yours! Your recipe looks delicious as well and so healthy too! Thanks for linking up to #tastytuesdays Reply
