Lentil And Cauliflower Stew Recipes

LENTIL AND CAULIFLOWER STEW

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring 2 1/4 cups of water to a boil. Add the rice and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, reduce to a simmer, cover and cook until the rice is tender about 17 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large nonstick saucepan, heat the oil. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened, about 7 minutes. Add the carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are crisp tender, about 4 minutes.
• Add the lentils to the pan, stirring to coat. Add the tomatoes, broth, ginger, coriander, allspice, and the remaining salt and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the lentils have begun to soften, about 10 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower, cover, and cook until the lentils and cauliflower are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Serve lentils and cauliflower stew over rice with a dollop of yogurt.
