Protein-packed back to school lunches 💪 episode 2!
Everyday Dal
1 cup red lentils
3 cups water
1 tsp ground turmeric
1 tsp salt
3 tbsp butter or ghee
Ground cumin
Ground cayenne pepper
Add the lentils, water, turmeric and salt to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cover. Cook until the texture is like porridge, about 10 minutes.
In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cumin and cayenne pepper and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, then remove from heat.
Pour the seasoned butter over the lentils and stir to combine. Add it to a preheated thermos while it’s still hot so it stays warm until lunchtime!
