Directions:
- Mince the garlic and dice the onion.
- Heat oil in a medium-sized pot, add onion and garlic and heat on low until the onions become translucent (it's important to keep it on the lowest heat setting because garlic burns really easily!).
- Add a pinch or two of curry powder, coat onions and garlic and sautee for one more minute or until the spice starts to dye them.
- Now add the lentils and water according to the packaging (mine suggested 1 cup of lentils and 3 cups of water), bring to a boil and add the rest of the spices.
- Stir, cover, turn the heat back down to low and let simmer for 20-30 minutes or until lentils are tender.
- Drain most of the water and serve over rice or with pita or naan bread and enjoy!
- *you can use any spices you have laying around, really. I just sifted through my cupboards and found that these work really well together, but feel free to experiment, add veggies, whatever you like :).
