Instructions

1
Finely dice the red onion, mince the garlic, and grate the fresh ginger. Rinse the red lentils under cold water until the water runs clear.
10 min
Rinsing lentils helps them cook evenly and prevents too much foam!
2
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent and soft.
5 min
Don't rush the onions; they provide the sweet base for the spices.
