Description

Red lentils and tofu combined with the flavorful spices of curry make this dish healthy and comforting.

Ingredients

  • 3-½ Tablespoons Olive Oil, Divided
  • 1 whole White Onion, Diced
  • 1 whole Red Bell Pepper, Diced
  • 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • 1 can (14.5 Oz. Can) Stewed Tomatoes, Drained And Roughly Chopped
  • 1 cup Dry Red Lentils
  • 1-½ cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 cup Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Curry Powder
  • 2 teaspoons Garam Masala
  • ½ teaspoons Coriander
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt, Plus More To Taste
  • 1 block (about 14 Oz. Block) Firm Tofu, Pressed And Cubed
  • 1 bunch Fresh Cilantro For Garnish

Preparation

In large saucepan, heat 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and red pepper, and saute until onions and peppers start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute. Add tomatoes and stir to combine, followed by the lentils, chicken broth, and water. Add curry powder, garam masala, coriander, and salt, and stir to combine. Let it come to a soft boil and let simmer about 20 minutes, or until the lentils have soaked up the broth and water.

Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, heat remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat and add cubed tofu. Cook until lightly browned on most sides, about 10 minutes. When lentil mixture is done cooking, add tofu to the mixture and toss to combine.

Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve over rice or with bread.
