Ingredients
Method
Gather and prepare your ingredients.
Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger, and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened.
Add the cumin and turmeric and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
Add the red lentils, peas, and broccoli. Stir to coat in the spices. Pour in the vegetable stock, bring to a simmer, and cook for about 15 minutes, or until the lentils and vegetables are tender.
Stir in the spinach and allow it to wilt for 1–2 minutes.
Mash or blend to your desired texture. Add a splash more stock or water if it thickens too much.
