½ teaspoon curry powder (more if you want a serious kick!)
1 teaspoon olive oil or toasted sesame oil
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 pint cherry or grape tomatoes
juice from 1 lime
salt to taste
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
Sauté onion, garlic, and ginger in oil on medium/high heat for 5 minutes until they become aromatic.
Add the lentils, broth/water, and curry powder. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 20 minutes, or until lentils are cooked through, stirring regularly.
Add the tomato paste and chopped tomatoes and continue cooking for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and add lime juice and salt to taste.
Serve hot and garnish with fresh cilantro. Minced scallions and a dollop of plain yogurt are also delicious on top.
