A comforting red dhal recipe with turmeric rice, perfect for a tasty week night dinner on a budget
1 In a saucepan place rice and cover with water. Add turmeric and salt. Cover and bring to the boil. Then reduce heat to the lowest setting and simmer for 25 minutes, or until rice is tender.
2 Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat oil over medium-high. Add onion and garlic and cook for 5 minutes, until softened and starting to go golden. Add carrot, celery, ginger and curry powder and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add lentils and stock. Stir in tomato paste and soy sauce.
3 Lower heat and simmer dhal for 10-15 minutes, until lentils are soft and collapsing. Add chilli flakes and spinach and stir until leaves are wilted.
4 Serve dhal with turmeric rice and top with yoghurt and coriander, if desired.
Make it gluten free: Check ground turmeric, curry powder, stock, tomato paste and soy sauce are gluten free.
