Ingredients

  • Sesame seed oil
  • 1 red onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 egg
  • Spinach
  • Canned green lentils
  • Canned chickpeas
  • Turmeric
  • Cumin
  • Curry powder
  • 1 tsp crushed ginger
  • Salt
  • 100ml milk
  • 1 lemon
  • Fresh coriander
  • Chedder cheese

Method

Dice the onion and garlic. Heat a pot over medium heat, add a splash of sesame seed oil, and sauté the onion and garlic until golden and fragrant.

In a small bowl, mix together all the spices with a pinch of salt.

Add the canned lentils and chickpeas to the pot, followed by the spice mix, a teaspoon of crushed ginger, and a generous handful of spinach. Stir well and cook until the spinach has wilted.

In a separate bowl, crack an egg into the milk and whisk until fully combined.

Reduce the heat, then slowly pour the egg-milk mixture into the pot, stirring continuously.

Cook gently on medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring regularly to prevent curdling and ensure a creamy texture.

Serve warm with a drizzle of lemon juice, a sprinkle of fresh coriander, and slices of cheddar cheese.

Tips For Affordability:

  • Use frozen spinach
  • Sunflower oil instead of sesame
  • Leave out the egg and milk if needed
  • Replace cheddar with what you have, any melty cheese will do
