What you need

How to make it

  • Wash, peel, and roughly chop sweet potatoes, and place them in a pot filled with water.
  • Bring them to a boil on high heat. Reduce the flame and cook for about 20 minutes.
  • Once cooked, drain the excess water and transfer them to a mixing bowl. Mash them until smooth.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of oil and season with 1/2 teaspoon of our Himalayan Pink Salt. Cover and set aside.
  • Take another pot and heat over medium flame. Once hot, add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and sauté the onions (about 5 minutes).
  • Add the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of our Pink Salt, Garlic Ground, and Red Chili Ground, along with the Lentils and vegetable broth, and stir.
  • Bring to a low boil, and reduce the heat to low. Cook until the lentils are tender (about 25 minutes).
  • When the lentils are almost done, add the carrots. Let them cook for a while to combine the flavors together.
  • Drain off any extra vegetable stock.
  • Preheat the oven to 425°F, and lightly grease a 9-inch by 13-inch baking dish.
  • Transfer the lentil mixture to the baking dish and cover it up with mashed sweet potatoes. Season with extra Pink Salt, if needed.
  • Bake it until the potatoes turn light brown on top (about 20 minutes).

Let the pie cool before serving it. Enjoy this heartwarming meal with your loved ones; thank us later!
