Méthode
- Add the onion, garlic, ginger & salt to your food processor with a splash of water & blitz to form a paste.
- Place a medium sized, non-stick saucepan over a medium heat and add the spices. Pan roast them for a minute or two before adding the paste & the oil.
- Sauté the mixture for 2-3 minutes, stirring often. Add the tomato puree followed by the potato and lentils.
- Keep cooking the mixture & stirring until everything is coated, then deglaze the pan with the vegetable stock & vegan cream.
- Add the brown sugar, then pop a lid on the pan and let the curry bubble away for 15-20 minutes. Turn the heat down low & don’t forget to stir it every 3-4 minutes, as the potato has a tendency to stick.
- After 20 minutes of cooking, the liquid should have thickened considerably & it should smell beautiful.
- Serve the curry with rice or sides of your choice & garnish with coriander and chilli.
Good to know!
- This dish can be served with rice, bread or as a stand alone dish.
- Add some plant-based yoghurt on the side if it's too spicy.

Tried this tonight for the first time. It was amazing, absolutely delicious, such a depth of flavour, perfect as is but you could also add other root veg too.
