Indian Apple Lentil Curry | Creamy & autumnal

Thoroughly rinse the basmati rice in a fine-mesh sieve under cold running water until the water runs clear. Then cook in lightly salted water according to the package instructions for about 12 to 15 minutes until tender, and keep covered and warm.

Wash, quarter, and core the apples, then cut them into approx. 1.5 cm cubes (you can leave the peel on). Peel and finely chop the onion, garlic, and fresh ginger. Briefly rinse the red lentils with cold water in a fine-mesh sieve.

Heat the coconut oil in a wide casserole dish or deep frying pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes until translucent. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for another minute.
