Рецепт Green Lentil "Moong" Curry
I've made this with green lentils and also with a mix of brown and yellow lentils. It doesn't really matter. They all taste awesome! Healthy and delicious as a side or main dish.
Ингредиенты
- 2 cups whole green, brown or yellow lentils (or a mix)
- 5 pints water
- 3/4 tsp ground turmeric
- 2 tsp ground cumin
- 4 tomatoes, chopped (or 2 15.5oz cans chopped tomatoes)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tsp whole cumin seeds
- 1 tsp red chile flakes or 2 dried whole red chiles
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 inches cinnamon stick
- 8 cardamom seeds (optional)
Инструкции
- Rinse the lentils, add the water, and bring to a boil in a large sauce pan. (optional: roast the dry lentils in the pan over high heat, stirring constantly until light brown about 2-3 minutes, before rinsing).
- Lower heat and add the turmeric, cumin, tomatoes and salt, partially cover, and simmer for about 70 minutes. Check periodically and add more water if lentils get dry.
- In a small pan, heat the butter and add the cumin seeds, chiles, bay leaves, cinnamon stick and cardamom seeds and let them sizzle for 1 minute. Add to the lentils, stir, and let sit for about 5 minutes before serving with basmati or brown basmati rice.
