Top Tips:

You can add the spices you want. If you do not like curry you can skip it.
Instead of lentils, you can use peas or beans. They make equally delicious dishes.
Do not replace the coconut cream with coconut water. The cream gives a thickness to the dish.
The tomato paste just gives color and a nice consistency to the recipe so do not omit it.
You can make it as thick as you wish. If you prefer it soupier just add a little bit of water.
Before serving you can add a little bit of vinegar.
