This curry is like a cozy blanket in a bowl — except it tastes way better and won’t make you sneeze. Red lentils, coconut milk, and just enough spice to keep things interesting come together in a dish that screams, “I’ve got my life together,” even if you’re cooking it in pajama pants at 10 p.m.

Here’s the beauty: you rinse those humble little lentils (don’t skip it, unless you enjoy mystery foam), toss them in with a spice mix that will make your kitchen smell like heaven, and let coconut milk work its creamy magic. The result? A silky, golden curry that’s rich without being heavy, bold without being overwhelming, and comforting enough to convince you to make a double batch next time. Serve it with rice, naan, or honestly just a spoon — no judgment.
