2. Bring to the boil, add the turmeric and stir before reducing heat and simmering for approx 20 minutes until the lentils soften and the lentils have absorbed the majority of the water.

3. Add your oil to a pan and fry your onion and cumin for a couple of minutes. Add the garlic and chilli for a further 2 minutes.

4. Add the onion, garlic and chilli mixture into the lentils and give it a good stir. Season with salt if required.
