Ingredients:

Serving

5 cups water, divided
3/4 cup dried small red lentils
1 tbsp canola oil
3/4 cup chopped onion
1 tbsp minced peeled fresh ginger
1 tbsp minced garlic
1 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp curry powder
2 serrano chiles, minced
2 oz spinach (about 4 cups loosely packed)
2 tbsp canola oil
1 tsp grated lime rind
1 1/2 tbsp fresh lime juice
1 tsp sugar
4 cups shaved carrot (about 2 large)
1 cup thinly vertically sliced onion
1 cup cilantro leaves
4 (1-oz) pieces refrigerated fresh pizza dough ( leftover from spinach
cooking spray
1/2 tsp ground coriander
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 1/3 cups hot cooked long-grain brown rice

Directions:

To prepare dal, combine 3 cups water and lentils in a bowl. Let stand 20 minutes; drain.
Heat a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil; swirl to coat. Add the chopped onion; sauté 3 minutes. Add ginger and next 6 ingredients (through serranos); sauté for 30 seconds. Add lentils and remaining 2 cups water to pan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 23 minutes. Stir in spinach; cook 2 minutes or until spinach wilts.
To prepare salad, combine 2 tablespoons oil, rind, juice, and sugar in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add carrot, sliced onion, and cilantro; toss to coat.
To prepare flatbreads, shape each dough portion into a 5-inch circle on a lightly floured surface. Coat dough with cooking spray. Heat a grill pan over high heat. Add 2 dough portions to pan; cook 2 minutes on each side or until lightly charred. Repeat the procedure with remaining dough. Combine coriander and 1/4 teaspoon salt; sprinkle over hot flatbreads. Serve with rice, dal, and salad.
