Lentil Tabbouleh in red curry

This Thai Tabbouleh leans on red curry to do the heavy lifting. We crisp the Lentil for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.

Lentil Tabbouleh in red curry
Method

How to cook it

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the red curry elements, and pat the lentil dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Add the dried lentils and crisp until it takes on colour and the edges catch, 4 to 6 minutes.

Stir in the red curry paste and the rest of the red curry flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the broccoli along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
