Steps:
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan or wok over a medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and, as they begin to sizzle, add the garlic and chillies. Fry for a minute, then add the onion and continue to fry for 7-8 minutes, stirring well.
- Add the coriander and turmeric and stir well. Add the frozen spinach, put a lid on the pan and cook over a medium heat for 5 minutes. Season with salt. As the spinach begins to release its moisture, turn the heat to low and cook for a further 5 minutes.
- Add the cubed potato and ginger and cook for 5 minutes: the potato will absorb any residual moisture. Serve with chapatis or rice.

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.

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.
