1 cup red lentils, (uncooked and rinsed thoroughly)
2 red onion (finely diced)
1 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. mustard seeds
2 tbsp. coconut oil
1 head of broccoli
4 cups vegetable stock
1 can coconut milk
1 tsp. chilli flakes
1 tsp. garam masala
1 tsp turmeric
Paprika, to garnish
Instructions
Wash and cut the broccoli into florets and place into a food processor. Process until the broccoli forms a cous cous like consistency. Set to one side.
Add 2 tbsp. of coconut oil to a large pot over a medium heat. Add the red onion, uncooked lentils, cumin and mustard seeds and cook for around 6 or so minutes (until the mustard seeds pop). The lentils should soften but will still be quite firm.
Add broccoli to the pot, followed by the vegetable stock and stir well. Cover and cook on a low heat for 20 minutes, stirring frequently.
After about 20 minutes, add in the rest of the ingredients and cook on low for a further 20-25 minutes. If too thick, add some water (I add around half a cup). Add salt to taste.
Sprinkle with paprika and serve.
