Ingredients

  • 1 and ¼ cups red lentils masoor dal
  • 3 cups roughly chopped kale
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 4 garlic cloves roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon red chili powder
  • Water
  • Salt to taste

For Tempered Spices:

  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 teaspoon cumin seeds
  • ½ cup finely chopped red onion or shallots
  • 2 dried red chilies broken into small pieces
  • 1 sprig of curry leaves

Instructions

  • Rinse red lentils under cold running water. Place them in a large pan. Cover with enough water (I used around 3 cups of water) and place the pan over medium-high heat. Cover with lid, and simmer until lentils are well-cooked.
  • Add kale, cauliflower and enough salt. Stir in ground turmeric, red chili powder and garlic. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and cover with a lid. Cook until the vegetables are tender. Add more water if needed. Remove from heat. Set aside.
  • To make the tempered spices, heat oil in a small frying pan over medium-high heat. Splutter cumin seeds. Add red onion (or shallots), dried red chilies and curry leaves. Saute, stirring, for 2-3 minutes, or until onions turn golden brown. Remove from heat.
  • Add tempered spices to the lentil curry. Mix well. Serve warm with rice or roti.

Notes

You can use your favorite lentils in this recipe. I used red lentils (or masoor dal) as they cook really quickly.
