Time 1h15m

Yield 4 1.5 cup servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium onion, minced
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 inch piece gingerroot, grated
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 (14 ounce) can light coconut milk
32 ounces chicken or 32 ounces vegetable stock
1/2 cup split red lentils, washed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can unseasoned pumpkin puree
1/2-1 teaspoon Thai red curry paste (optional)
black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup cilantro (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil over medium heat in a large saucepan, add the onion and saute until transparent.
  • Add the garlic and ginger, sauté another 2 minutes until fragrant; lower heat and stir constantly to avoid burning.
  • Add the spices and sauté for a minute more.
  • Stir in the coconut milk, stock, lentils, and pumpkin puree.
  • Simmer over medium-low heat for 40 to 50 minutes or until lentils are tender. Be sure to stir occasionally.
  • Before serving, stir in the red curry paste if you are using it or adjust seasoning with black pepper. For a smoother stew, you can use an immersion blender. Garnish with fresh cilantro or thai basil, serve with crusty bread.
