Recipe: Super quick dahl

September 10, 2019 by Shari Leave a Comment

The other day, I whipped up this super quick dahl and it’s a fabulous recipe to create with pantry staples. I’m talking lentils, coconut milk and tinned tomatoes. Oh and curry leaves and mustard seeds.

I’ve actually been grabbing a few of the curry leaves packs when they are marked down to 50c and popping them in my freezer. A super simple kitchen hack for fresh herbs – freeze them!

A hearty, warming meal on the table in minutes – just what we have needed during witching hour (when it’s cold and wet outside) and I’m surrounded by washing on indoor clothes lines.

Seriously – who wears all these socks?

Recipe: Super quick dahl

  • 1 knob of ginger
  • 1/2 head of garlic
  • 2 onions
  • 1 tbsp of mustard seeds
  • 1 packet of curry leaves
  • 500 grams of lentils
  • 2 tins of crushed tomatoes
  • 2 tins of coconut milk
  • oil

Heat some oil in a large frying pan or pot. Microplane in the ginger and garlic with the mustard seeds and curry leaves. Cook until fragrant.

Add in the diced onion and cook until translucent.

Add in the lentils, tomatoes and coconut milk. Simmer until the lentils are tender (approximately 15 minutes). Serve with nan bread.

I popped this @drinklisto Tommy’s Margarita Mix in my @delishdeliveries order as a little Christmas present to me.

I feel like it’s platter season - however with Covid-19 around we haven’t been getting out and about nor have we been having as many guests as normal.

I was really hoping that we were going to be able to get the opportunity to catch up with people that we hadn’t seen, but it’s not really panning out that way.

Here is a platter from New Years Eve - when some other friend’s plans got cancelled which meant that they were able to pop in and see us (as they were a family of four).

What’s your key to the perfect platter?

Shari from GoodFoodWeek

GoodFoodWeek started in 2008 as a way of sharing recipes with uni friends and family who were spread near and far. It has evolved over the years to contain my ramblings as I’ve searched for a house, planned the perfect veggie patch, stumbled through farmer’s markets with my eye half open (because you need to be there at 6am to get the fresh eggs), had babies, gathered family and friends around a shared table, laughed out loud and enjoyed life to the fullest!
