Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash and soak lentil for 30 mins
- 2
Heat oil in instant pot sauté mode or pressure cooker, add cumin, asafoetida and copped onion and sauté till onion is translucent
- 3
Add garlic and ginger paste and sauté for another min
- 4
Add tomatoes, salt to taste, red chili powder to taste and turmeric
- 5
Sauté all for 5 mins.
- 6
Add the soaked lentil and 5 cups of water
- 7
Change the instant pot to pressure cook mode. I have a diff brand so in mine I set it to full pressure for 10 mins. You cAn start with this setting and if lentil is still hard then you will have to pressure cook it for some more time. If you are using traditional pressure cooker then pressure cook it for about 25 mins.

After the pressure is done you can add water if the lentil is too thick and give a quick boil. If it’s too thin then just boil to reduce.

Red Lentil Soup Red Lentil Soup
This is the first time I made this soup, and after one taste, I knew I had to share the recipe! Even my six-year-old liked it! 🤩I like my lentil soup thick and hearty, so the consistency I aim for is like a thin hummus. If you like a more watery soup, add more chicken broth or water. As with all soups, there is a lot of room for modification. If you like spice, chili powder, ginger, or cayenne pepper will amp it up nicely. If you want to make it vegan, substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth. However, this version as written is perfectly delicious. Enjoy!This recipe was modified from The NY Times#GlobalApron - Week 38 Lentils, Onion#Lunch #Fall #Autumn #Winter #Vegetables #Vegetarian #Vegan

I love lentils especially the red ones cause they cook so quickly and have a great taste. And they are a great source of vitamin Bs and fiber.
