Instructions
Rinse the red lentils under cold water until the water runs clear. Finely chop the onion, mince the garlic and ginger.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the ground cumin, ground turmeric, ground coriander, garam masala, curry powder, and chili powder (if using). Cook for about 30 seconds to release the spices' aroma.

Serving Suggestions: Serve with steamed rice or warm naan bread for a complete meal.
Storage: Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of water if needed.
