Tuesday

dinner tonight - veg + lentil curry

What's for dinner at your house tonight?
This is what we had.  Thankfully we had a 'stocked' larder, I do wonder how I would cope without my 'convenience foods' aka, the humble tin can.

Vegetable and Lentil Curry

List of ingredients as follows:
silverbeet (or rainbow chard as we had in the patch)
sweet potato
tin of diced tomatoes
tin of organic lentils
onion
carrots
garlic
bay leaves
oriental master stock by Jillaroo Jams

oops...almost forgot....
vegetable stock
celery
curry powder
cardamom pods


oh...I also added....
 a white potato
cracked black pepper
1 teaspoon of sugar

Things are getting a little tastier at my whole 'adding lentils' thing, I've discovered the humble cardamom pod does wonders to a 'standard' Keen's curry mix.  The kids also love discovering them in their plate now, kind of like a little prize or jewel.
Even my hubbie likes this dish, although I still can't get him to come to grips with tofu unfortunately!
I'm also quite 'keen' to master some more vegetarian dishes to my repertoire, I'm going to experiment with a pumpkin pie next week!
