This is a nice warming winter curry which is easy to prepare. The combination of cumin, coriander and turmeric makes a healthful curry base which is not irritating to the digestive system like many commercial curry powders can be.
HEARTY POT OF LENTILS
This is such an easy recipe yet so full of nutrition. You can add whatever vegetables and flavours you desire but this is generally the way I make it. You can add more liquid and make it more soupish or reduce the liquid and make it more stewish. It’s up to you!
CHICKPEA, TOMATO AND SPINACH CURRY
This is a nice simple Indian style curry! While tinned chickpeas can be used, I always like to cook my own chickpeas as I think they taste so much better. I regularly cook a big batch and keep smaller portions in the deep freeze ready to use in recipes.
MEXICAN BEANS
Beans are a staple food of many civilisations around the world. Recent research indicates that: not meat, eggs or dairy but “the intake of legumes (beans, chickpeas and lentils) may be the single most important dietary predictor of a long lifespan”. http://apjcn.nhri.org.tw/server/info/articles/diets-foods/Darmadi.pdf What a great incentive to include more beans in your diet!
