Make
- Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add butter and then onions and carrots to butter. Saute until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add jalapenos, garlic and spice mix and saute for ~1 minute more.
- Pour stock and soy sauce over vegetables. Add potatoes and lentils. Bring to a simmer and cover. Simmer until lentils and potatoes are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- While stew simmers, chop tomatoes and cilantro. Combine and season with a pinch of salt.
- If you'd like the naan toasted, spread it on a sheet pan and toast it under the broiler just until warm.
- Return to stew and stir in peas. Continue cooking until heated through.
- Remove stew from heat and stir in lime juice. Taste and season with some salt and pepper.
- Ladle stew into bowls. Top bowls with a spoonful of yogurt and tomato / cilantro mixture. Serve with naan wedges. Enjoy!
