Preheat the oven to 220C / fan 200C / gas mark 7. Trim the broccoli. Place onto a lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil, the turmeric and a pinch of sea salt. Roast for 10-15 mins, until soft and golden brown.
Finely chop or crush the garlic. Finely dice the onion. Heat a medium saucepan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 5 mins, until softening.
Drain and rinse the lentils. Halve the tomatoes. Roughly chop the coriander.
Add the tagine paste, lentils, tomatoes, half the coriander and 200ml hot water (100ml for 1 person) to the pan. Crumble in the stock cube and stir. Simmer for 10 mins, until thickened. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
Serve the lentils topped with roasted broccoli. Garnish with the flaked almonds and remaining coriander.
