I've been experimenting with vegetarian options, and my go-to pantry-buster for stuff I generally always have on hand is this: sautee a chopped onion in a good helping of oil/butter. add a bit of flour (a tablespoon or so, but add it slowly while stirring) until you've got a nice roux-like consistency. Add a jar of curry paste, and a can of petite dice tomatos (with the juice) and a can of garbonzo beans (i drain mine). Add dried lentils and 70-80% the amount of water it suggests on the bag. Bring to a boil and simmer until the lentils are an acceptable texture. Enjoy with naan or by itself.
This sounds interesting. What consistency does it end up being?
