Vegetarian Combo Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Lentils

    Rinse the lentils under cold water. In a pot, add lentils, 3 cups of water, turmeric, cumin, and salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes until tender.

  2. 2

    Cook the Chickpeas

    In a separate pan, heat 1 tbs of olive oil. Add chopped onion, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until onion is translucent. Add chickpeas, salt to taste, and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Spinach and Carrots

    In another pan, heat the remaining olive oil. Add sliced carrots and cook for 5 minutes. Add spinach and a pinch of salt. Sauté until spinach wilts, about 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the lentils, chickpeas, spinach, and carrots to a serving platter. Serve warm with injera on the side.
