  • 2 tsp ginger, fresh minced
  • 2 clove garlic crushed
  • 1 chilli, red finely diced
  • 1 capsicum, red diced
  • 1 carrot diced

  • 400 g tomato, diced, canned
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce gluten free if required
  • 400 g lentils, canned drained and rinsed
  • 500 g yoghurt, natural

Instructions
 

  • Heat half the olive oil in a saucepan over over medium-high heat. Add the onion, ginger, garlic, chilli and sauté until soft. Add the capsicum and carrot and toss for a further minute. 
  • Add the curry paste and sauté until fragrant. Add the chicken breast and toss to coat in the curry paste and cook for another minute. 
  • Reduce the heat and add the tinned tomatoes and soy sauce. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the lentils and simmer for a further 5 minutes.
