- 1 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin seeds
- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds

DIRECTIONS
In a large lidded saucepan heat ghee and add the ginger and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Add the cumin, fennel seeds, fenugreek, and turmeric. Cook until fragrant.
Add the split peas & rice and coat in the spices. Pour in bone broth/stock. Bring to a boil & cover then reduce to a low heat to simmer for 35-45 minutes and most of the liquid has been absorbed. (You may need to add more water if the mixture starts to stick to the bottom of the pan)
Stir in your veggies & cover and cook for another 4-5 minutes.
Serve warm sprinkled with coriander and a dollop of Coconut Yoghurt & Pepper or store in the fridge for up to 5 days to enjoy as lunch.
