1 1/2 cups lentils, rinsed and drained
2 1/2 cups water
2 Tbsp cooking oil
3 cloves garlic, grated
1 stalk celery, diced
1 large onion, diced
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp powdered ginger
1/2 tsp turmeric
2 large green apples, cored/diced
Put lentils in a large pot with water, cover and simmer gently for 30 to 40 minutes or until tender.
Meanwhile, put oil in a heavy skillet, add all the remaining ingredients (except apples) and cook over low heat, stirring often, until vegetables are tender; about 15 minutes. Add the apples to the skillet, stir, and cook for 10 minutes more or until apples are softened slightly; remove skillet from heat.
When lentils are cooked and tender, add the lentils to the mixture, stir, then turn out into a large casserole dish.
Bake (uncovered) in 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until mixture is bubbling hot.
Serve immediately. Will serve 4 to 6 or more with other dishes.
