How to Make Red Lentils And Spinach
- Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and chopped onion; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in cumin, turmeric, cayenne pepper (if using), and garam masala. Cook for 1 minute more, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
- Add rinsed red lentils and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until lentils are tender.
- Stir in diced tomatoes (undrained), salt, and chopped spinach. Continue to simmer, uncovered, for 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly and the spinach is wilted.
- Remove from heat and stir in grated fresh ginger.
- Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro and serve hot with rice or naan bread.
