Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 cups carrot chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper or to taste
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1 teaspoon ginger minced, fresh
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon Coriander
- 1-2 teaspoons curry powder
- 2 teaspoons salt or to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 6 cups water
- 1 cup yellow mung beans or yellow lentils or red lentils
- 1 cup brown rice or white rice
- cilantro optional, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a Dutch oven or stockpot. Add the chopped onion and carrots and sautee until onions are starting to brown.
- Add rice, lentils, spices, salt and 6 cups water.
- Bring it to boil. Partially cover and simmer until tender, stirring occasionally (30-40 minutes for natural brown rice, approx. 15-20 for white rice, or par cooked brown).
- Taste and adjust salt, curry and cayenne.
- Serve warm.
Notes
- Tip: most of the spices are used in 1 teaspoon quantities. So rather than referring back to the recipe, I measure the cayenne, then line up the remaining jars and very quickly add a teaspoon each.
