Potato, parsnip and red lentil curry
Background
If you follow a vegan, vegetarian or healthy diet, curries are probably one of your staple dishes, as they are easy to make and there are countless of varieties. This potato, parsnip and red lentil curry is bit similar to dhal but more filling. Try to use organic potatoes, because they donβt need to be peeled (which saves time) and most of the nutrients are in the skin. You can serve the curry with boiled rice or just naan bread and mango chutney or raita on the side. If you like the heat, add some chilli powder or use hot curry powder.
