Split Peal Soup Recipe (Pakistani Style)

Wash red lentils about six to seven times until water runs clear.

Drain lentils and add to pot with about 6 cups of water.

Add turmeric, red chili powder, and salt to the pot.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cook until lentils melt, about 25 minutes.

Finely slice onion and roast in olive oil until golden.

Add cumin seeds to the roasted onions and cook for 30 seconds to a minute.

Check the consistency of the soup and add more water if it gets too thick.

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serve lentil soup over cooked basmati rice with a side salad and yogurt.
