I really like the African Peanut Stew recipe that I have on this blog, and I have been trying to find another recipe that uses curry that I like just as well. I have probably tried 4 things that were just o.k. and finally after trying this today, I finally found a recipe that didn't let me down. This recipe came from a food blog that I have contributed to in the past called www.gurlinthekitchen.blogspot.com It doesn't really get updated anymore, but there are some great recipes on there!
2 T. olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 T. grated ginger root (or 1 t. powdered)
1 1/2 c. green lentils, cleaned and rinsed
1 can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
3 c. chicken broth
1 can coconut milk
2 t. curry powder
1 t. turmeric
salt to taste
Jasmine rice
Heat oil in skillet, add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes. Add ginger. Cook until onion is soft, then add broth, lentils, garbanzo beans, coconut milk, curry powder, and turmeric. Cook until lentils are soft, 20-30 minutes. Taste for salt, add more if necessary. While lentils are simmering, cook your rice. Serve lentils over hot cooked rice.
