Lentil Dal Preparation

I got this recipe from the recent issue of Cooking Light – I modified it, of course. 1. Heat a large saucepan (nonstick or with Pam or broth) over medium-high heat. Add onion and next 5 ingredients (onion through garlic); saute 2 minutes. Add cauliflower and tomato; saute 1 minute. Stir in water and lentils; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 35 minutes or until lentils are tender. Stir in lime juice, cilantro, and salt. Serve with rice. My changes – I used canned tomatoes, used broth instead of water, left out the salt, and didn”t use the rice. I think you could use curry powder instead of the red pepper and turmeric.
