Step 3 : Sauté the Veggies

In a larger cooking pot, add oil and then chopped ginger, garlic, and sliced onion; sauté for 1-2 minutes until soft. Follow this by adding the tomatoes and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Introduce cumin, coriander, and turmeric powder to the pot; stir these in for about 10 seconds, then add the tomato paste.

Step 2 : Prep the Ingredients

Peel and finely chop both the garlic and ginger; then cut half of the onion into thin slices and the other half into cubes for later use. Chop the tomatoes into small, bite-sized cubes.

Step 4 : Simmer the Lentils

Stir in the lentils to the pot, then pour in both the vegetable stock and coconut milk. Allow the mixture to simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the dhal becomes soft and the flavors are well combined; adjust the taste with chili flakes (spicy), black pepper, and salt

Step 6 : Serve and Enjoy!

To serve, spoon the cooked basmati rice onto serving plates, then ladle the creamy dhal over the rice. Complete the dish by topping it with the lemony onion mixture and a sprinkling of fresh coriander leaves
