Dice the onion and sauté it in the peanut oil along with the crushed or chopped garlic. Then add the lentils and deglaze with twice the amount of water. While the lentils are simmering, wash the tomatoes and dice them as well. Keep an eye on the lentils and stir frequently. When the mixture has become creamy, add the tomatoes and season everything: add salt, chili, and curry powder, and stir in the tomato paste. If desired—depending on how creamy you want it—add coconut milk. Finally, add the kidney beans. 100g of red lentils contain 26g of protein, making this dish the perfect accompaniment to your fitness routine.
