Notes from dmv: despite following the directions my cooked lentils were mushy so I decided to serve them over rice and omit the eggs. \u00a0Also served with jarred cilantro chutney rather than fresh. \u00a0This simple dish was\u00a0delicious. \u00a0Recipe is from one of\u00a0favorite\u00a0blogs:\u00a0http:\/\/www.thebittenword.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n

1 cup dried small red lentils
\n3 cups water
\n1 bay leaf
\n2 teaspoons olive oil
\n1 cup chopped onion–used less
\n1 cup chopped tomato
\n1 teaspoon curry powder
\n1\/2 teaspoon ground cumin
\n1\/2 teaspoon salt, divided
\n1\/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
\n1 garlic clove, minced
\n1 tablespoon white vinegar
\n4 large eggs
\n1\/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
\n1\/4 cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
\n2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro<\/p>\n

Combine first 3 ingredients in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes or until lentils are tender. Drain; discard bay leaf.<\/p>\n

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add onion and tomato; saut\u00e9 8 minutes or until onion is tender. Add curry, cumin, 1\/4 teaspoon salt, red pepper, and garlic; saut\u00e9 2 minutes. Add lentils; cook 1 minute. Remove from heat.<\/p>\n

Add water to a large skillet, filling two-thirds full; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer. Add vinegar to pan. Break eggs into custard cups. Gently pour eggs into pan; cook 3 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Carefully remove eggs from pan using a slotted spoon. Place about 3\/4 cup lentil mixture on each of 4 plates; top each serving with 1 poached egg. Sprinkle evenly with remaining 1\/4 teaspoon salt and black pepper. Top each serving with 1 tablespoon yogurt and 1 1\/2 teaspoons cilantro.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
