This was our dinner tonight. Very hearty soup with tons of vegetables. Well balanced as the brown lentils provided reasonable amount of protein, fiber and good carbs. I thought it was a little bland, so added a splash of soya sauce in the end which enhanced the taste.
Brown Lentils / Kala Masoor Dal - 1/2 cup, washed
Olive Oil - 1 tbsp
Green Chilli - 1, finely chopped
Garlic - 4 cloves, finely sliced
Onion - 1/2, chopped
Carrot - 1/2, diced
Cabbage - 1/2 cup, chopped
Tomato - 1 big, peeled and chopped
Baby Spinach - 1 cup
Salt
Roasted Coriander Powder - 1 tsp
Fresh Ground black pepper
Soya Sauce - 1 tsp (optional)
Water / Homemade Vegetable Stock - 4 cups
Heat oil in a pan. Add garlic, green chilli, onion and saute for a minute.
Then add the carrot and cabbage and cook for a couple of minutes more.
Add tomato, spinach, brown lentils, salt, pepper, coriander powder, water and cook in a pressure cooker for 4 minutes after full pressure is reached.
Remove the pressure, check for seasoning. Add a dash of soya sauce on top and serve hot.
