Indian Curry Lentils with Raisins and Bananas

Serves 6

1 pound (~500 gram) lentils (white or green) 2 bags of brown rice 5 tablespoons raisins 5 bananas 6 tablespoons tomato paste 1 liter chicken bouillon 1 tablespoon black pepper 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon cumin 2 teaspoons sweet paprika 2 teaspoons curcuma 2 tablespoon cayenne pepper 5 onions 5-10 cloves of garlic Olive oil 1 pound (~500g) yogurt 300ml milk Curry

  1. Cut onions and garlic, heat the oil, put the onions first, then the garlic into the oil, eventually deglaze it with the chicken bouillon.
  2. Add tomato paste and spices and lentils, let it cook for around 45 min
  3. Add yogurt, milk, raisins and sliced bananas for a couple of minutes Serve with the brown rice (You won't need much of the rice because of the lentils; but it tastes good with it.)

As for the curry: you can take the ones you like. Personally, I take a normal yellow curry you can find in every supermarket, a hot red curry and an extremely hot curry mix I always order online. Depends on your liking! The hotter you make the food, the more necessary the rice, of course. The idea, just like with a chili, is that everyone adds rice until it has the kind of "hotness" / pepperiness they personally like.



bon appetit
