This easy veggie curry uses leftover lentil ragu – see recipe below – and storecupboard ingredients, so it's rustled up fast. Providing 2 of your 5-a-day and a hit of fibre, it's warming, wholesome and comforting. We like to serve it with a dollop of yogurt and lemon wedges for zing – delicious! See method

Method
- Cook the rice to pack instructions. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a high-sided frying pan over a low heat. Add the turmeric, ginger and garam masala and fry for 1-2 mins until fragrant. Stir in the tomato purée followed by the leftover lentil ragu and 150ml water; simmer for 10 mins. Stir in the peas and simmer for another 3-4 mins until just cooked.
- Divide the rice among bowls. Spoon over the keema, top with the coriander and yogurt and serve with lemon wedges for squeezing over, if you like.
Tip: This recipe uses leftovers from our shepherd's pie with garlic and herb mash.
