Cook Time 30 minutes

Servings 4

Ingredients

1⅓ cup red lentils, rinsed well

1L vegetable stock

1 bay leaf

Lemon juice, to serve

Fresh ginger, julienned, to garnish

Tadka

¼ cup ghee

1 onion, finely chopped

10-12 curry leaves

1 tsp turmeric

1 tsp black mustard seeds

Method

Place the lentils, bay leaf and stock in a pot and simmer for 20-30 minutes until it’s soupy.

Heat the ghee in a pot and add the onion. Fry until translucent.
