Full Choice 2pts per serving

2 onions, finely chopped

2 courgettes, diced

1 small aubergine, diced

1 large red pepper, diced

175g red lentils (dry weight)

1 x 400g tin chopped tomatoes

150ml veg stock

2 garlic cloves, crushed

2 tsp chopped fresh thyme or 1 tsp dry

2 tsp garam masala

8 cardamom pods, crused & seeds removed

salt & pepper

Preheat oven to Gas 6/200ºC/400ºF

Place all the veg in a roasting tin, season well with salt & pepper and bake at the top of the oven for 25-30 mins until lightly roasted.

In a large pan, bring to the boil the lentils, tomatoes, stock, garlic, thyme and spices.  Simmer 15-20 mins to soften the lentils and allow them to absorb the liquid.

Add the roasted veg and simmer 10 mins to allow the flavours to combine.

Note: To make it creamy, add some low fat natural yogurt just before serving.  Adjust points as necessary.
