Steps:
- In a large, heavy skillet or stew pot, fry the onions in butter until they are golden brown. With a slotted spoon, remove about 1/3 of the slices and set aside.
- Add to the pot the ginger, garlic and chili paste, and fry for 5-6 minutes, stirring constantly. Then add the lentils, green peas, carrots and green beans. Reduce heat and cook for 15 minutes, adding more butter or a bit of oil if needed.
- Add the tomatoes, spices and mint, and stir for 5 minutes.
- Then pour a cup of hot water, cover, and simmer until vegetables are about half cooked.
- Add rice, potatoes, salt and another 4-5 cups of hot water (use the lesser amount if your vegetables have created quite a bit of liquid). Cover again, and cook for another 20-30 minutes until rice is done and water is absorbed.
- To serve, garnish with the reserved onion slices, and pass around a bowl of yogurt as a sauce.
