👨🍳Instructions
- 1
Rinse the red lentils in cold water until the water runs clear.
- 2
Sauté the onion in a large pan or pot with the oil for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.
- 3
Add the garlic, ginger, and spices (turmeric, cumin, coriander, chili). Mix and heat for 1 minute to release the aromas.
- 4
Add the tomato and cook for another 2-3 minutes until it softens slightly.
- 5
Add the lentils, water, and coconut milk, then the bouillon cube. Salt, pepper, mix.
- 6
Simmer over low heat for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. The lentils should be tender and the texture creamy. Add a little water if it's too thick.

Taste and adjust seasoning. Add a squeeze of lemon juice at the end of cooking for a fresh note (optional).
