dahl

Ingredients
8 ounces lentils (soaked as per packet instructions)
600 ml gluten free stock
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 ounce olive oil
1 onion (chopped)
1 yellow pepper (chopped)
3 garlic cloves (whole but peeled)
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Directions
1. Put the lentils, turmeric and stock in a saucepan and bring it to the boil. Then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes. Most of the liquid should be absorbed.

2. In the meantime, melt the margarine in a saucepan and add the onion, yellow pepper, garlic, chilli powder, cumin, salt and pepper to taste. Fry until the onion is soft and starting to brown.

3. Take out the garlic and add the cooked lentils. Reduce the heat and simmer gently for about 5 minutes or so.

**NOTE TO MY FRIENDS**
Come on in for a nice cup of coffee and a chat about my weight loss journey as well as all the healthy recipes I have found, including WW points and/or nutritional information if available. I am eating a vegetarian diet and concentrating on getting healthy and hopefully weight loss will follow. Thank to all my readers for their ongoing support.
