Directions

  1. In a large, heavy skillet, heat oil and butter over medium-high heat. When butter melts and foam subsides, sauté onion for 3-4 minutes, until soft and starting to turn golden. Add garlic and potatoes and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until the potatoes are starting to turn golden on the edges. Add ginger and curry paste and cook for another minute.
  2. Add lentils, cilantro, chicken stock, and coconut milk, stir to combine well and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender. Add a little water, stock, or coconut milk if it gets too thick.
  3. Add lime juice and season with salt. Serve hot with ciantro for garnish.
