From the Test Kitchen

Here, a hearty duo of green lentils and kale get incredibly rich, bold flavor when cooked with spicy yellow curry paste and sweet coconut milk—plus a squeeze of lemon juice for a hint of brightness. It’s perfectly balanced by toppings of roasted sweet potato and creamy garlic yogurt.

tips & techniques
Prepare & roast the sweet potato:
1 Prepare & roast the sweet potato:

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven, then preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Medium dice the sweet potato. Place on a sheet pan. Drizzle with 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Arrange in an even layer. Roast 19 to 21 minutes, or until browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Transfer to a bowl. 

Prepare the remaining ingredients:
2 Prepare the remaining ingredients:

Meanwhile, peel and small dice the shallot. Peel and finely chop the ginger. Peel 2 cloves of garlic. Roughly chop 1 clove. Using a zester, finely grate the remaining clove into a paste (or use the small side of a box grater). In a bowl, combine the diced shallot, chopped ginger, and chopped garlic. Separate the kale leaves from the stems; discard the stems, then finely chop the leaves. Quarter and deseed the lemon. Roughly chop the peppers. In a bowl, combine the yogurt, 1 tablespoon of water, and as much of the garlic paste as you’d like. Season with salt and pepper. 

Cook the lentils & kale:
3 Cook the lentils & kale:

In a medium pot, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the prepared shallot, ginger, and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the curry paste. Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until thoroughly combined. Add the lentils, 1 1/4 cups of water (carefully, as the liquid may splatter), and the coconut milk (shaking the can before opening); season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 18 to 20 minutes, or until thickened. Add the chopped kale. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until the lentils are tender and the kale is wilted. Turn off the heat. Stir in the juice of 2 lemon wedges. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.
