Millet is often overlooked as a grain for everyday cooking, but it works so well in recipes like this, adding a mild, slightly nutty flavour while soaking up all the spices and coconut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1.jpg\" alt=\"Coconut Millet and Lentil Curry in a double handled non stick skillet with small bowl filled with curry and torn naan next to pan\" data-skip-lazy class=\"wp-image-47767\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-560x840.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-1-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The combination of brown lentils and millet makes this curry filling and satisfying, with a lovely texture that feels a little different from the usual rice or quinoa-based dishes.

You can use olive oil spray if preferred.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Onion and Garlic<\/strong>: These create the base of the curry and add sweetness and flavour once softened.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Passata<\/strong>: Adds a smooth tomato base to the curry without any chunks. It works with the tomato paste, stock and coconut milk to create the sauce.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Chicken or Vegetable Stock<\/strong>: Stock helps cook the millet and adds extra flavour to the curry. Use vegetable stock to keep the recipe vegetarian or vegan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Millet<\/strong>: Millet is an often overlooked grain with a mild, slightly nutty flavour. It works really well in curries as it absorbs the spices and sauce while adding a lovely texture to the dish.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Brown Lentils<\/strong>: Canned brown lentils make this curry quick and easy while adding protein and fibre. Drain and rinse them before adding to the pan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Tomato Paste<\/strong>: Adds richness and helps deepen the tomato flavour in the curry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spices<\/strong>: Curry powder, chilli powder, cloves and cardamom pods add warmth, flavour and fragrance to the curry. Use mild or medium curry powder depending on your preferred spice level, and remove the whole cloves and cardamom pods before serving.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Raisins<\/strong>: These add little bursts of sweetness that work really well with the curry spices, coconut milk and millet.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Coconut Milk<\/strong>: Adds creaminess and balances the spices. Light coconut milk can be used if you want to keep it lower in calories.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maple Syrup<\/strong>: Adds a touch of sweetness to balance the tomato, spices and coconut milk.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fresh Coriander<\/strong>: Stirred through or sprinkled over the top at the end for freshness and flavour.<span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><span style=\"font-weight: normal;\"><span style=\"font-size: xx-small;\"><span style=\"font-size: x-small;\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial Black'; font-size: small;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Once you've gathered all the ingredients and prepared them accordingly, you're all set to create this easy and delightful recipe.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">See the recipe card for specific quantities and instructions.<\/h4>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-feast-feature-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Variations and Substitutes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are plenty of ways to adapt this Coconut Millet and Brown Lentil Curry depending on what you have on hand, whether you want to change the grain, adjust the sweetness or add extra vegetables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Millet<\/strong>: Millet gives this curry its unique texture and slightly nutty flavour, but you can swap it for quinoa, beans or double up the lentils. Cooking times and liquid amounts may need adjusting though depending on the grain used.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lentils<\/strong>: Canned lentils keep this recipe quick and easy, but dry lentils will also work well, they will need to be cooked separately first before adding to the curry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vegetables<\/strong>: You can add extra vegetables such as spinach, kale, diced carrots, bell peppers, cauliflower, peas or even some sweet potato, regular potato or butternut squash. Softer vegetables can be stirred in near the end, while firmer vegetables are best added earlier so they have time to soften.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Coconut Milk<\/strong>: Light coconut milk works well for a lower calorie option, however I prefer to use regular coconut milk for that decadent creamy finish. The sauce will not be as thick\/creamy when using light coconut milk<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sultanaa<\/strong>: Raisins add little bursts of sweetness, but you swap for chopped dried apricots or even some diced apple or leave them out if you prefer a less sweet curry.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Spice Level<\/strong>: Use mild, medium or hot curry powder depending on your preference. You can also reduce the chilli powder for a milder curry or add extra if you like more heat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Stock<\/strong>: Vegetable stock will keep this curry vegetarian or vegan, while chicken stock can be used if that is what you have on hand.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Maple Syrup<\/strong>: Maple syrup balances the tomato and spices, but honey can be used if you do not need the recipe to be vegan. You can also leave it out if you prefer, but I find the little bit of sweetness balances all the spices.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Fresh Coriander<\/strong>: If you are not a fan of coriander, swap it for fresh parsley or simply leave it out.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8.jpg\" alt=\"Coconut Millet and Lentil Curry in a small grey bowl with torn naan and wooden handled fork placed in bowl\" class=\"wp-image-47770\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-560x840.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-8-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-feast-branding-background\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Side Suggestions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This Coconut Millet and Brown Lentil Curry is already filling and satisfying, as the millet and lentils make it a hearty meal on their own. You can serve it with rice if you want to bulk it out even more, especially if feeding the family or stretching the portions further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I personally like to keep it simple and serve it with naan, and this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/garlic-greek-yoghurt-naan-bread\" type=\"post\" id=\"32510\"><strong>Homemade Garlic Naan<\/strong><\/a> is a great option. Poppadoms are also a great side, adding a lovely crunch and making it easy to scoop up every last bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For extra vegetables on the side, try steamed or roasted broccoli, green beans, cauliflower, spinach or roasted carrots. A simple cucumber and tomato salad also works well if you want something fresh to balance the warm spices.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-group-tip-2\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:12px;border-top-right-radius:12px;border-bottom-left-radius:12px;border-bottom-right-radius:12px\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-ee2332cf wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-feast-branding-color-primary-background-color has-background\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:12px;border-top-right-radius:12px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-9c325150 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-5a6a8214f4dcdb2d34979bcc8e6a1b38\">Storing, Freezing and Reheating<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-white-background-color has-background\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:0px;border-top-right-radius:0px;border-bottom-left-radius:12px;border-bottom-right-radius:12px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--40);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50)\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-041f66d3 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Storing<\/strong>: Allow any leftovers to cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days. The curry will thicken as it sits, as the millet continues to absorb the sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Freezing<\/strong>: This curry can be frozen, although the texture of the millet may be a little softer once defrosted and reheated. Freeze in suitable airtight containers for up to 3 months, then defrost overnight in the fridge before reheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Reheating<\/strong>: Reheat in a pan over a low heat or in the microwave until piping hot throughout. Add a splash of stock to loosen the curry, as it will thicken after storing.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10.jpg\" alt=\"Coconut Millet and Lentil Curry in a small grey bowl with torn naan and wooden handled fork placed in bowl\" class=\"wp-image-47771\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-720x1080.jpg 720w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-360x540.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-180x270.jpg 180w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-560x840.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.slimmingeats.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/millet-lentil-curry-10-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-feast-feature-wrapper\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Vegetarian Recipes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking for some more vegetarian recipes?
