Dal is an Indian stew made with lentils and spices, which is usually served over rice. It is very easy to make and portions can be frozen for later use. Serve this hearty dal with Indian Fried Rice and thinly sliced green cabbage tossed with my Cilantro Vinaigrette.

2 tablespoons coconut oil
1½ teaspoons cumin seeds
1½ teaspoons black mustard seeds
1 large onions diced
3 cloves garlic crushed
2 teaspoons turmeric powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
¼ teaspoons cayenne pepper
2 large carrots peeled and diced
3 medium red potatoes cubed
2½ cups red lentils rinsed and drained
6 cups water
1 cans coconut milk
2 cups diced tomatoes
2 teaspoons Herbamare (or sea salt)
