Instructions

  • Heat oil in a frying pan or skilled and add onions. Saute until they are transparent. Add the ginger garlic paste and saute for one more minute.
  • Add tomato, curry powder, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and cook for two minutes.
  • Add the vegetables along with one cup of water. Mix well and cook for three minutes.

  • Add the spinach at the end and simmer for one minute. Turn off the heat and add lemon juice.

Notes

  • If you are using canned lentils, rinse them well to remove excess starch and prevent a mushy texture.
  • The water used to cook the vegetables can be replaced with vegetable broth.
