1
mince the garlic and dice the onion.
2
heat oil in a medium-sized pot, add onion and garlic and heat on low until the onions become translucent (it's important to keep it on the lowest heat setting because garlic burns really easily!).
3
add a pinch or two of curry powder, coat onions and garlic and sautee for one more minute or until the spice starts to dye them.
4
now add the lentils and water according to the packaging (mine suggested 1 cup of lentils and 3 cups of water), bring to a boil and add the rest of the spices.
5
stir, cover, turn the heat back down to low and let simmer for 20-30 minutes or until lentils are tender.
6
drain most of the water and serve over rice or with pita or naan bread and enjoy!
