Follow The Directions
01
Step
Heat the canola oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add the chopped red onions, minced garlic, and fresh ginger. Sauté until fragrant and the onions become translucent, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.
02
Step
Sprinkle in the raw sugar and ground cumin. Continue to cook and stir until the sugar begins to caramelize, being careful not to burn the cumin, about 2 minutes.
03
Step
Stir in the curry paste and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, allowing the flavors to bloom.
04
Step
Add the cubed potatoes, tomatoes with their juices, coconut milk, red lentils, and vegetable bouillon. Bring the mixture to a boil.
05
Step
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the potatoes and lentils are fully cooked and tender, approximately 20 to 25 minutes.
06
Step
Stir in the lemon juice and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Adjust seasonings as needed.
For a richer flavor, consider using full-fat coconut milk.
Feel free to add other vegetables such as spinach or peas during the last few minutes of cooking.
Serve this curry with a side of basmati rice or naan bread for a complete and satisfying meal.
The type of curry paste will greatly affect the flavor of the final dish. Experiment with different varieties to find your perfect blend.
If you don't have fresh ginger on hand, you can substitute with 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger.
