Using a strainer, rinse rice until water runs clear.
To the boiling water, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 13-15 min, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
Peel, then cut onion into 1/4-inch pieces.

Heat a large pot over medium-high.
When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil and onions. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until onions soften slightly.
Meanwhile, using a strainer, rinse lentils until water runs clear.
Drain and rinse chickpeas.
To the pot with onions, add ginger-garlic puree and Indian Spice Mix. Cook for 1 min, stirring often, until fragrant. Season with salt and pepper.

Add lentils, chickpeas, coconut milk and 3/4 cup (1 1/2 cups) water. Bring to a boil over high.
Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 10-15 min, stirring often, until lentils soften.
Cut tomatoes into 1/4-inch pieces.
Roughly chop spinach.
Roughly chop cilantro.
Add vegetable stock powder, tomatoes and spinach. Cook for 2 min, stirring occasionally, until spinach is wilted. Season with salt and pepper.

Toast in the bottom of the oven for 3 min, until softened.
