Inspired by an Ayurvedic dal recipe in the Esalen Cookbook, this is a light-bodied, curry-spiced coconut broth thickened with cooked red lentils and structured with yellow split peas. The back notes of ginger, slivered green onions sauteed in butter, and curry-plumped raisins make this a new favorite of mine.
Prep before work and come home to mouthwatering aromas and end-of-day deliciousness. Tender beef, hearty vegetables and a savory sauce top noodles for a smart, big-flavor meal.
Heat the broth mixture in the microwave to jump-start the cooking. Meanwhile, saute the aromatic ingredients in your soup pot to get this dish under way. Though we like the shape of fusilli, you can also make this soup with wide egg noodles, rotini, or even orzo.
With deepest apologies to William Carlos Williams: This is just to say I have eaten the kohlrabi that was in the icebox and which we were planning on saving to eat just like that [plain and peeled] Forgive the hyperbole...
This is Annie Wayte's healthy rendition of the classic British dish of bangers and mash. Instead of pork sausages, she uses chicken ones, and she replaces mashed potatoes with fiber-rich lentils.
