One Pot Coconut Turmeric Stew
Author: 
Serves: 4 servings
 
Ingredients
  • 2 tsp. olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 carrots, diced
  • 1 red pepper, diced
  • 1 long eggplant, diced
  • ⅔ c. red lentils
  • 1 block firm tofu, cubed
  • 2 tbsp.ground turmeric
  • 1 veggie bouillon cube
  • 1 can coconut milk + water, to thin
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
  1. In a large pot, heat up olive oil.
  2. Add in garlic and onion. Saute until onions are translucent.
  3. Add in carrots, red pepper, and eggplant into the pot along with turmeric and bouillon cube and sauté for another 2 minutes.
  4. Add in coconut milk and red lentils. I usually need to add in ½ cup more water for the lentils to cook. Cover the pot and bring stew to boil before lowering it to a simmer, covered, for 15 minutes. Stir occasionally to make sure lentils aren't burning on the bottom.
  5. Serve with rice, a bed of veggies, or on its own!
