Lentil Pea And Potato Curry Recipes

SLOW COOKER RED LENTIL & CHICKPEA CURRY WITH POTATOES & PEAS

Steps:

• To a 4-quart or larger slow cooker, add the lentils, chickpeas, onion, garlic, potatoes, vegetable broth, curry powder, cayenne pepper if using, and salt. Stir, place the lid on the slow cooker, and cook on low for 7-8 hours (high for about 4 hours), until the potatoes and lentils are cooked through. It'll be relatively thick until you do the next step.
• About 30 minutes before eating, start cooking your rice and stir in the coconut milk and peas. Continue cooking on low for another 20-30 minutes.
• Taste and add additional salt if desired.
• To serve, add some rice to your bowl plus the curry. Top with fresh cilantro. That's it!

• Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 20 mins until the lentils and sweet potatoes are tender. Add a drained 400g can chickpeas, then heat through.

LENTIL AND RHUBARB CURRY WITH POTATOES AND PEAS

Steps:

• For the Spice Blend: In a bowl, stir together all the ingredients.
• For the Lentils: In a heavy 3 to 4 quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, shallots, ginger, and a large pinch of salt, cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is soft, 8-10 minutes. Uncover, stir in the garlic and the spice blend, and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
• Add the cabbage, potatoes, rhubarb, lentils, brown sugar, and bay leaf, along with enough cold water to cover by 1 inch. Raise the heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer gently, uncovered, until the lentils are tender, about 30 minutes. Stir occasionally and add more water as necessary to keep the dish fairly soupy.
• When lentils are tender, season with salt to taste, stir in the peas, and simmer until the peas are just tender, about 4 minutes.
