- Heat 1 tbsp sesame oil in a wide-based pan with a tight-fitting lid.
- Add 1 finely chopped red onion and cook over a low heat for 10 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened.
- Add 1 crushed garlic clove, a finely chopped thumb-sized piece of ginger and 1 finely chopped red chilli, cook for 1 min, then add 1½ tsp ground turmeric and 1½ tsp ground cumin and cook for 1 min more.
- Turn up the heat to medium, add 2 sweet potatoes, cut into even chunks, and stir everything together so the potato is coated in the spice mixture.

Steps:
- To make the dhal, heat the oil in a large non-stick pan and fry the onion over a low heat for 10 mins, stirring regularly, until softened and very lightly browned - add the garlic for the final min. Stir in the curry powder and cook for 30 secs more.
- Add the lentils, 1 tsp flaked sea salt and 1 litre of water. Stir in the sweet potatoes and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook the lentils for 50 mins or until the dhal is thick, stirring regularly. Add a splash of water if the dhal thickens too much. Stir in the lime or lemon juice and season to taste.
- While the dhal is cooking, make the curried vegetables. Half-fill a medium non-stick pan with water and bring to the boil. Add the beans, cauliflower and carrots, and return to the boil. Cook for 4 mins, then drain.
- Return the pan to the heat and add the oil and onion. Cook over a medium-high heat for 3-4 mins or until the onion is lightly browned, stirring regularly. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min more until softened. Stir in the curry powder and cook for a few secs, stirring.
- Add the tomatoes, green chilli according to taste and 200ml cold water. Cook for 5 mins or until the tomatoes are well softened, stirring regularly. Stir in the blanched vegetables and cook for 4-5 mins or until hot throughout. Season with black pepper.
- Divide the dhal between four deep bowls and top with the curried vegetables. Serve with the yogurt, coriander and lime wedges for squeezing over.

Steps:
- Rinse the lentils and drain. Add to a saucepan with the water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 12 minutes. Keep an eye on the pot because lentils can quickly boil over. Set aside when lentils have absorbed the liquid.
- In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, warm the 3 tbs olive oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 10 minutes. Add a bit of water if needed to make sure the onions remain soft.
- Add the garlic, ginger and spices. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly.
- Add the sweet potato flesh, diced tomato, tomato paste and vegetable broth. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly. Transfer to a blender. Blend the mixture just until everything is combined.
- Pour mixture back into saucepan and stir in the lentils. Cook just until heated through. Taste and adjust salt/pepper as needed.
- Serve.
