Originating from the Middle East, red lentil soup is a staple in many kitchens, celebrated for its nourishing qualities and simplicity. Traditionally enjoyed during colder months, it embodies warmth and comfort, often served with bread. Today, variations exist globally, with each culture adding its unique twist to the recipe.

Quantities are estimated based on standard recipes for your convenience. The actual ingredients used in this video are accurate.

1

Begin by making a spice paste with Cumin Seeds, Turmeric Powder, Black Peppercorns, Cloves of Garlic, and roughly cut Onions. Grind into a paste.

2

Heat Vegetable Oil in a pan.

3

Chop up some vegetables and Potatoes.

4

Add the chopped vegetables and remaining roughly cut Onions to the hot oil and sauté for about a minute.

5

For a smoky aroma, continue charring the vegetables to your preference; otherwise, sautéing is sufficient.

6

Add soaked Red Lentils (split and skinless) to the pan.

7

Incorporate the spice paste, Salt, and Water into the mixture. Mix well.

8

Cook under pressure for three whistles in a pressure cooker.

9

After the pressure has settled, check the soup; it should be chunky and hearty.

10

Serve the soup as is with a little Lemon Juice and Coriander, or blend it fine, adding more Water, Salt, Lemon Juice, and Coriander for a second version.
