  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Mince garlic. Halve and peel onion. Cut halves into 1/2" dice. Stem jalapeño, halve and cut into a small dice. Reserve seeds. Remove ribs of kale and coarsely chop.

  2. 2

    Start the Daal

    Place 1 Tbsp. olive oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add mustard and stir with a wooden spoon until fragrant and popping, 30-60 seconds. Add garlic, onion, jalapeño, ginger and cook until soft and golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Add a pinch of salt. While daal cooks, start rice.

  3. 3

    Start the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice, 11/2 cups water, and a pinch of salt to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until tender, 18-20 minutes. Set aside covered. While rice cooks, finish daal.

    Finish the Daal

    Add seasoning blend and a pinch of salt to pot with daal and stir often until toasted, 2-3 minutes. Add tomatoes and juice and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil and add lentils. Simmer until lentils are softened and sauce is thickened, 20 minutes.
