Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 30 minutes
Makes: 4 servings

Ingredients
Coconut Rice
2 cups rice (we used brown rice)
2 cups water
250ml coconut cream

Dhal Soup
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped finely
2 tsp ginger
2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
400g can brown lentils
2 cups vegetable stock
bunch coriander, roughly chopped (to serve)

Method

Place coconut rice ingredients in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce heat and simmer until all the liquid has been absorbed and rice fluffy.

Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, heat the oil over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook until soft.

Add the ginger, cumin, cayenne pepper and turmeric, and cook for a further 30 secs.

Transfer lentils and stock to the saucepan and mix well. Allow to simmer for 5 mins before removing from the heat.

Serve on a bed of coconut rice and with a sprinkle of the chopped coriander.
