basic chickpea or lentil curry recipes?

Hi.

I'm giving up red meat for Lent and so I'm looking to do something I've been thinking about for a while and begin to introduce chickpeas, lentils etc into my diet. The problem is, most of the recipes I see are fairly exhaustive in their list of ingredients and sadly, I don't think I'd be able to afford most of the herbs and spices on the recipes. My food cupboard has dried garlic, sweet paprika, hot paprika, dried chillis, mixed herbs etc but the recipes I'm seeing seem to demand so much more herbs and spices.

So my question is basically: does anyone have any chickpea/lentil curries that don't have such a long list of ingredients?

Thanks in advance.
