Preparation

This recipe will feed around 8 people, for a smaller quantity simply halve the ingredients.

Dice your onions and crush your garlic and lightly fry in a pan with vegetable oil Drain your lentils and add to the frying pan. Next add your tomato sauce and three quarters of the coconut milk. Put your sweet red peppers in the blender and add this to the mix. 


Step 2


Add your 2 squares of chocolate to the mix, which may be an unconventional dahl ingredient but gives the dish a lovely rich sweetness. Add the stock cube, herbs and spices and gently simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with a swirl of warm coconut milk and a sprinkle of chopped coriander for presentation.
