Masala Red Lentil Spinach

Ingredients

    • 1 tbsp olive or coconut oil
    • 1 small red onion, diced
    • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
    • 1- inch fresh ginger, peeled and crushed
    • 1 serrano chili pepper, seeded and crushed
    • 1 tsp ground cumin
    • 1 tsp garam masala
    • ¼ tsp coriander
    • One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
    • 1 tsp sea salt
    • One 15-ounce can unsweetened full fat coconut milk
    • 1 cup red lentils
    • 5 ounces baby spinach

Directions

 

Heat the oil in large stock pan. Saute the onion over medium-high heat until soft for 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, serrano, cumin, garam masala, and coriander. Cook for 2 mins until it get fragrant. Carefully pour in the tomatoes, scraping up any brown bits that formed on the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has reduced and the tomato chunks are softened for 5 minutes. Add the coconut milk and 1 cup water. Bring it  to a boil over high heat. Stir in the lentils and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook until the lentils are tender for 25 to 35 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the lentils from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Fold in the spinach and cook until it is wilted for 3 minutes. Serve along with rice.

lamb and haricot bean stew

Breton braised lamb & haricot beans

Put the beans in a saucepan and cover with water. Add the quartered onion, the halved carrot and halved celery, the bay leaves, parsley stalks and peppercorns. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer for 30-40 mins until the beans are soft. Drain well and reserve the cooking liquid, discarding the onion, carrot and celery.

While the beans are cooking, heat half the olive oil in a heavy-based flameproof casserole. Brown the lamb in batches over a high heat. As each batch is cooked, remove it and set aside on a plate. Reduce the heat, add the chopped onion to the pan with the diced celery and carrot and cook until well coloured. Add the garlic and cook for another couple of mins.

Return the lamb to the pan and add all the remaining ingredients, except the beans. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to very low and cover, then cook for 2 hrs. Add the beans 45 mins before the end of cooking time. Stir the lamb round every so often. If the lamb looks dry, add some of the bean cooking liquid.

Remove the lid for the last 30 mins of cooking time, and season. This helps the cooking liquid to reduce. You should end up with a thick stew of tender lamb and soft beans. Scatter over the parsley and serve.

BBQ drumsticks with slaw

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Slash the chicken with a sharp knife and toss with the barbecue sauce in a roasting tray. Season with black pepper and roast for 45 mins, basting every 15 mins with the sauce from the tray, until sticky and cooked through. Meanwhile, make the slaw. Mix all the vegetables together in a large bowl, then toss through the salad cream and some seasoning. When the chicken is cooked, serve with the slaw and some crusty bread, if you like.
