A classic, easy, and tasty. I like to make this and then freeze, with brown rice, in lunch-sized containers. I'm not sure my co-workers appreciate the smell but there are times I just don't care.
Oil – sesame or olive oil
1 diced onion
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon minced ginger
4 c water
1 c red lentils
1 t cumin…or a bit more
1 t coriander
1 t turmeric
1/4 t cardamom
Cayenne pepper to taste
Salt to taste
Saute onion, garlic, ginger in oil until onions are clear. Add remaining ingredients and cook until
lentils are nice and soft.
