Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced/pressed
  • 1 tbsp ginger finely grated
  • 1 tsp garam masala
  • 2 tbsp tomato puree
  • 1 small sweet potato diced
  • 1 cup mung beans and lentils hydrated overnight
  • 800 ml water
  • 1 can coconut milk

Instructions

  1. Set the InstaPot to sautee and add the butter once it's warm.

  2. Add onion, garlic, ginger, and garam masala, and let everything saute while you peel and dice the sweet potato.

  3. Add the sweet potato and tomato puree and mix everything together until the sweet potato is evenly coated and the tomato puree well blended in.

  4. And the lentils and mung beans into the pot.

  5. Add water and stir gently

  6. Put the lid on and set the InstaPot to Pressure cook for 20 minutes

  7. Once the time is up and pressure has been released and the coconut milk and cook for 5 more minutes (I like to set the Pot to Sautee to make sure the stew boils up again and the coconut integrates well)

  8. Serve and Enjoy with your favorite Naan or with a side of freshly cooked rice.
