Saute the onion, garlic, and ginger in 1 tbsp olive oil. Chop all of your veggies.
Combine all the ingredients (grains + lentils + vegetables + onion mixture) in a large pot, add the masala.
Bring everything to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. Let it cook for 20-30 minutes until all the water has been absorbed
Garnish with cilantro, serve with yogurt if you like!
