Instructions

Start by sautéing the aromatics. In a large skillet on medium-high heat, heat your olive oil for one minute. Then stir in the onion and cook until softened (about two to three minutes). Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant (about a minute) before adding the garam masala, paprika, cumin and chili flakes.
Simmer. Stir in the vegetable broth, dried lentils, coconut milk and chopped tomatoes and then bring the ingredients to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, then cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes or until the lentils are tender and the sauce has thickened.
Final touches. Stir the lime juice through the dahl and season to taste with salt and pepper. Then you can remove the skillet from the heat.
Serve. You can top the dahl with the Greek yogurt (or coconut cream) and fresh parsley leaves. Then serve with the naan bread and lime wedges.
