This fragrant, spiced vegetable stew combines lentils, carrots, and cauliflower in a savory broth seasoned with cumin, coriander, turmeric and cinnamon. The stew makes a nutritious meal as is, but if you want to make it heartier, try adding sautéed ground lamb or sautéed diced tofu. To brighten favors and add contrast, try serving with a spoonful of Greek yogurt and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Step 2
Increase the heat to high. Stir in the cauliflower, lentils, cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, tomatoes and broth and heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook for 35 minutes or until the lentils are tender, stirring occasionally. Season to taste.
