curried lentils with carrots and peas

lentil curry

Recipe from Vegan Planet.  This is an excellent cookbook.  So far everything we’ve made from it has been good and approved for a second making.

The cookbook says to serve this over rice, but we used quinoa.   It still tasted good.

Saute’ onion, ginger, garlic, and spices in olive oil.  Add 1 1/4 c lentils and 3 cups water — cook 10 mintues.  Add 2 carrots–cook 30 minutes.  Add 3/4 cup peas, 1 cup coconut milk, salt and pepper — cook 10 minutes.

*Spices:  cardamon, cinnamon, dry mustard, cayenne, allspice, tumeric

Made:  8 servings

Cost: $5 for the entire batch, $1.50 for the quinoa.
