RED CURRY LENTILS WITH SWEET POTATOES & SPINACH
Red lentils are sweeter and softer than other lentils, that is, they cook up to form a splendid base for the vegetables. They need no pre-soaking and cooking time is shorter.

Steps:
- In a Dutch oven or pot, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high. Add the sweet potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned all over, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the browned sweet potatoes to a plate and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil to the pot and set the heat to medium-low. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the curry paste, garlic, ginger, chile and turmeric, and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add the lentils, stock, salt and browned sweet potatoes to the pot and bring to a boil over high. Lower the heat and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are just tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Add the coconut milk and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced and the lentils are creamy and falling apart, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Add the spinach and stir until just wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Off the heat, stir in the lime juice and season with salt to taste.
- Serve over rice and top with cilantro and coconut flakes, if desired.
RED CURRY LENTILS WITH SWEET POTATOES AND SPINACH
In this vegetarian main inspired by Indian dal, lentils are cooked with an aromatic blend of Thai spices - fresh ginger, turmeric, red curry paste and chile - then simmered in coconut milk until fall-apart tender. Browning the sweet potatoes before cooking them with the lentils brings out their sweetness, balancing the heat from the chile and curry paste, while baby spinach tossed in just before serving adds fresh flavor. Serve over steamed white or brown rice, or with toasted flatbread on the side.

CURRIED LENTILS WITH SWEET POTATOES AND SPINACH
My mother-in-law shared this with me (by way of deliciousliving.com), and it sure is a keeper. One of the tastiest ways I know to get your daily vitamins! The recipe calls for fresh spinach, but I used frozen (thawed out) and it worked fine. I'll fix this without the almonds next time, but that's just a matter of preference. We made this gluten free by using a gluten free broth, and GF yogurt. Mmmm, I can't wait to see how the leftovers taste tomorrow!
