  2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 6-8 minutes or until soft. Add the garlic and all of the spices and cook, stirring, for another 30 seconds.
  3. Stir in the tomatoes, stock, lentils and courgettes. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 5 minutes, until the courgettes are tender. Stir in the spinach.
  4. Divide the lentil curry between 4 bowls and top with the eggs. Serve with the mini naan breads on the side.

Notes

For extra flavour, combine 200g fat-free natural yogurt with 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint and serve on the side with the naan breads.
