Curry hits the spot!

With all of the Dal recipes i've been seeing lately and the curry cravings I've been having I decided to make a nice yellow lentil curry stew that I saw a few days back from Hannah at Bittersweet .  So I made a big pot of this, served my son and I a big bowl full, we sat down in front of the t.v. and watched the movie 9.  Have you seen it?  It was really good, different good, Tim Burton style.   We love Tim Burton movies.

This was extremely easy and quick to make.  It definitely hit the spot and made me all warm inside!


I made some brown rice on the side instead of adding it into the pot so I only used 4 cups of broth.  I didn't have any tomato sauce on hand so I diced up 2 tomatoes and cooked them with the onion, garlic mixture and I also used a bit of fresh ginger and some tumeric. Oh and no vinegar.  I can't wait for left overs tonight!

  4. Curry hits the spot better than anything! This looks so hearty and filled with yummy veggies.

    Haven't seen 9 yet, but I'd really like too. I loved Chicago, so I'm hoping this one will be just as good.
