    Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
  --------  ------------  --------------------------------
       3/4           cup  brown lentils
    10            ounces  frozen spinach -- (1 package), thawed
    2        Tablespoons  canola -- or other neutral oil
    1             medium  yellow onion -- chopped
    2                     garlic cloves -- minced
    1 1/2      teaspoons  grated fresh ginger
    1         Tablespoon  curry powder -- hot or mild
       1/2      teaspoon  ground coriander
       1/4      teaspoon  ground cumin
    14 1/2        ounces  canned diced tomatoes -- undrained
       1/2      teaspoon  salt
       1/4      teaspoon  black pepper
       1/2           cup  plain vegan yogurt
   
   
  Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to boil over high heat. Add the
  lentils, return to a boil, then reduce heat to low.  Cover and cook until
  tender, 40 to 45 minutes. During the last 5 minutes of cooking, add the
  spinach. Drain and set aside.
  In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, cover
  and cook until tender, about 7 minutes.
  Stir in the garlic, ginger, curry powder, coriander, and cumin. Cook for 1
  minute, then add the tomatoes with their juice and cook, stirring to blend
  the flavors, for 5 minutes. Stir in the cooked lentils and spinach, salt,
  and pepper. Simmer until the mixture is hot and the flavors are blended,
  about 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding a bit more curry
  powder or salt if necessary. Serve hot with the yogurt on the side.
   
  Makes 4 servings
   
  AuthorNote: Multiple flavor layers transform everyday lentils into a
  special dish that is especially good served over fragrant basmati rice to
  catch every drop of the delicious sauce.
  Splurge a Little: Use fresh spinach instead of frozen, adding it when you
  add the tomatoes.
