Wominjeka Everyone,

🍽️ EVERYONE’S FAVOURITE OSHC MENU! 😋

One of the children’s favourite parts of OSHC is our delicious meals!❤️

We’ve had so many families asking us to share some of the recipes, so we thought — why not share them with everyone?

A special thank you to Naarah, who always prepares such delicious and much-loved meals for our children. 👩‍🍳💕

Don’t worry we’ll be sharing a recipe in every newsletter! 🥰

So, if there’s a favourite meal your child always talks about at home, keep an eye out — you might just find the recipe here!

Happy cooking! 🍳👩‍🍳

OSHC Dahl Recipe

By Naarah 😊

Serves 4 / Prep 10 mins/ cook 25 mins

Ingredient

2 tablespoons olive oil (Any oil is fine ) 1 ½ cups washed red lentils	1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 large onion, finely chopped	½ teaspoon cayenne pepper(adjust to personal taste)
1 tablespoon minced garlic	1 tablespoon Garam Masala
1 200ml tin chopped tomatoes	1 tablespoon minced ginger
3 cups vegetable broth	1tablespoon cummin
200ml coconut cream	2 teaspoons salt ( or as your taste) and 1 lemon

Instructions

In a large pot or pan over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion in the olive oil for 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Then add the garlic and ginger and cook 1 more minute, until fragrant.
Add the garam masala and turmeric to the pan and stir into the onion mixture. Add a few tablespoons of water if the mixture is too dry.

Now add the canned tomatoes; cook the tomatoes for 5 mins, then add lentils and vegetable broth to the pot. Stir well and turn the heat to high. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat ad coconut cream; simmer for about 20 minutes, until the lentils are cooked and soft. Stir occasionally.

Squeeze the lemon juice into the pan, and stir in the spinach as well until wilted. Add salt to taste. I used 1 teaspoon.

You can serve with cooked rice and a dollop of natural yoghurt.

This is my recipe for Dahl that I cook in OSHC. 🍛👩‍🍳 I hope you all enjoy making and eating this delicious dish. 😋❤️
