Lovely Lentils

Monday night I did my shop - I couldn't be bothered to drive to a big store so just ended up going to Morrison's in Sutton.  I bought most of the ingredients on my list which I was pleased about - the only thing they didn't have was Pak Choi. 

Monday nights meal was Spicy root and lentil casserole and OMG was it amazing.  It was a bit boring peeling all the vegetables but well worth it....

700g potatoes
4 carrots
2 parsnips
150g red lentils
2pts veg stock
2 tablespoons of curry paste
Chili Oil
Onion
Garlic

Fresh coriander and yogurt to serve

This recipe is so simple - just fry the onion and garlic for 5 minutes then chuck in the potato chunks, carrots and parsnip for a further 10 minutes.  Add the curry paste and mix with the stock - chuck in the lentils and simmer for 30 mins.  Delicious!

I couldn't find red lentils pre soaked so just used green tinned ones and it turned out fine.  This dish is so filling and totally vegan - just make sure you check the ingredients on the stock and curry paste. 

I also ate this cold for lunch today and it still tasted great - BUT the best thing about this recipe (which serves 4) is that its only 1g of saturated fat for the whole thing!  I took a photo to show you guys...
