Cooking Instructions

40 mins
  1. 1

    Chop up onions and carrots, toss them into the Dutch oven with the oil. Cook until soft.

  2. 2

    Add garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Sautee until you can smell the spices and the bottom of the Dutch oven becomes browned.

  3. 3

    Add tomato, lentils, salt, and water. Cover and let simmer for 15 to 20 minites, stirring occasionally to make sure the lentils don't stick.

  4. 4

    While the soup is simmering, put the quarter cup oil in a small sauce pan on low heat.

  5. 5

    Warm the oil, and then add mustard seed, coriander, cumin, paprika and salt. Stir occasionally.

  6. 6

    When lentils have started to break down, turn off the heat for the lentil mixture. Put the lentils mixture into the food processor, and pulse until smooth. Add water as needed to loosen mixture.

  7. 7

    Serve lentil soup, top with dressing.
