00:00Hello, you lovely people, this is me Chef Varun Inamdar and welcome to Get Curried.
00:07Well, today let's put the spotlight on women's health.
00:10As they say, a happy woman means healthier and stronger community.
00:14Let's celebrate this very special day by making a healthy and nutritious recipe
00:19called Lentils Pie with Sweet Potato Mash using cookware from Thin Kitchen.
00:24Let's begin.
00:31Well, trust me when I say, this recipe is extremely simple.
00:35What I'm going to do is use lots of lentils, lots of potatoes which means
00:40and not just any potatoes, sweet potatoes.
00:43Which means the recipe is loaded with the power of vitamins, proteins and lots of fibre.
00:49Of course, you can change the vegetables, you can add in more, reduce choices, completely yours.
00:53But this is my select collection for today.
00:56And for sautéing our ingredients and making a hearty lentil preparation,
00:59I'm going to use my master class Sky Blue Casserole Dish from Thin Kitchen.
01:04This is built from high quality cast Aluminium which absorbs heat quickly
01:07and distributes it evenly throughout which makes cooking faster.
01:11Let's begin with a touch of Oil.
01:14And to this, immediately I'm going to add in sliced Red Onions.
01:22Let's sauté this and allow this to turn translucent on medium flame.
01:26While this is happening, let's quickly start cutting some Carrots.
01:34Let's slide in these Carrots along with these some French Beans.
01:39Now it's extremely important to understand the importance of a healthy diet.
01:44Now you need to use ingredients that are of course healthy,
01:47which have lots of fibre, lots of vitamins, lots of proteins.
01:50Carbohydrates can be kind of avoided if you're the kinds.
01:54But otherwise, it's extremely important to use ingredients of your choice.
01:58Something that's regionally, locally available to add to the fun and merry of making a healthy, nutritious recipe.
02:05Now while I'm talking all of this, let me also introduce you with the master class casserole
02:10in which I'm going to blanch the sweet potatoes for the mash that goes right on top.
02:16Let's add in water, just enough for the sweet potatoes to cook completely well.
02:22Let's cover this and allow this to cook for around 15 minutes and move back to our Lentils.
02:34Let's add in some herbs of choice, in this case I'm adding in some Thyme.
02:39And along with this, a touch of Salt.
02:41Let's stir this well and allow the vegetables to cook to the doneness that you prefer.
02:48Finally to this, let's add in some blanched Peas, Beans and Lentils.
