Delicious and not hard to prepare, this lentil-coconut-cabbage stew is. I'm very excited about how good he got and I'm sure I'll cook this stew more often.

Ingredients for 1-2 persons:

  • 75 g lenses (color matter, I had green)
  • 100 g of white cabbage
  • 200 g coconut milk (1/2 can)
  • about 1 teaspoon tomato paste
  • 1 carrot
  • ½-1 onion (I had half of a larger one)
  • 1-2 pinches of chilli flakes (to taste)
  • 400 g vegetable broth
  • cayenne pepper
  • possibly salt
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil (tasteless)
  • Spring onions (1 bunch)
  • 50-80 g cocktail tomatoes

preparation

  1. Dice the washed carrot and peeled onion.
  2. Heat the oil in a suitable pan and sauté the onion and carrot cubes together with the chilli flakes, amount to taste. Do not brown, but fry until glassy.
  3. Add the weighed lentils, stir in the tomato paste and the vegetable stock well.
  4. Cook gently over medium heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. In the meantime you can prepare the cabbage. Wash this and cut into fine not too long strips.
  6. Quarter the washed cocktail tomatoes, cut the spring onions into small rings and wash.
  7. After the 30 minutes, add the coconut milk and cabbage, stir and simmer for another 10 minutes.
  8. Turn off the oven, add the quartered tomatoes and the onion rings and let them pass through, do not cook any more. A few onion rings and tomato quarters reserved for serving.
  9. If the sharpness is not enough, you can sharpen with cayenne pepper (powder).
  10. Possibly. salt a bit, arrange and enjoy!

Of course, the recipe can be easily extended for more eaters.

If you prefer soup, you can just use a bit more broth and coconut milk, I can easily imagine. But I found the consistency great.
