    Rinse your lentils thoroughly.

  2. 2

    Dice the carrots into small, bite-sized pieces.

  3. 3

    In a medium pot, combine the rinsed lentils, diced carrots, and four cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the lentils are tender but still hold their shape.

    Stir in the red curry paste and coconut milk. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.

    Finally, add the fresh spinach. Stir it in until it wilts completely, which only takes a minute or two. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious, hearty stew.
