Ginger Sweet Potato Dal with Coconut Leeks

Recipe:

Ingredients
Sweet Potato Dal
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon black mustard seeds
pinch of chili flakes
1 cup red lentils
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and small diced
1 two-inch piece ginger, peeled and minced
1 one-inch piece fresh turmeric (or substitute 1 tsp dried turmeric powder)
3½ cups water, plus extra if necessary
sea salt to taste
Coconut Leeks
2 tablespoons extra virgin coconut oil
1 medium leek, white and light green part julienned
squeeze of lime juice
pinch of salt
To Serve
cooked warm rice
flatbread
chopped parsley, cilantro or mint (or a combination)
black sesame seeds, for garnish (incredibly optional)
Instructions
Place a large pot over medium heat. Heat up the coconut oil in the pot and add the ground coriander, mustard seeds and chili flakes. Stir about until the mustard seeds start to pop just a little bit.
Add the lentils, diced sweet potato, ginger, turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Stir the whole mixture to combine/coat in oil. Add the filtered water. Bring to a boil and simmer until the mixture is creamy and soupy, stirring occasionally. The sweet potato pieces should still be intact with a tiny bit of bite. The lentils will be broken down, filling out the mixture, about 25 minutes or so. Add more water if you need to. Keep it warm while you sauté the leeks.
Heat the coconut oil in a small sauté pan over medium heat. Add the leeks to the pan and sauté until leeks are soft and very fragrant. Season with salt. Add a squeeze of lime if you like. Remove from the heat.
To serve: divide the hot dal over 4 portions of rice. Top the dal with sautéed leeks and a few dribbles of the coconut oil left in the pan. Garnish each serving with the chopped herbs and black sesame seeds.
