Instructions

Get Prepped
1

Peel and grate the ginger. TIP: Use a teaspoon to easily scrape away the peel.

Peel and chop the sweet potato into 2cm chunks.

Halve the lime (see ingredients for amount).

Build the Flavour
2

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large saucepan on medium heat.

Once hot, add the ginger, tikka masala paste and tomato puree. Stir together and cook for 1 min.

Add in the sugar, water for the dal, (see pantry for both amounts), coconut milk and veg stock paste. Stir to combine.

Simmer the Dal
3

Add the sweet potato and red lentils to the pan and season with salt and pepper.

Bring to a simmer, then cover with a lid and cook until the lentils and sweet potato are soft, 20-25 mins.

Stir occasionally to prevent it from sticking. Add a splash of water if it looks a little dry.

Heat the Naans
4

Meanwhile, if you don't have a toaster, heat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7 for the naans. 

When the dal has 5 mins left to cook, cut the naans in half widthways, then put in your toaster until golden.

If you're using the oven, put the naans onto a baking tray. Sprinkle with a little water and pop them into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Once toasted, spread over the butter (see pantry for amount).

Add the Spinach
5

Once the dal is cooked, stir through the spinach a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot, 1-2 mins.

Finish and Serve
6

Squeeze some lime juice into the dal. Taste and add more salt, pepper and more lime juice if needed, adding a splash of water if it's a little thick.

Serve in bowls with the naans alongside for scooping up the dal.

Enjoy!
