Recipe Notes

If you don't have a Durotherm® or Hotpan®, prepare the soup in a dutch oven or large soup pot.

Vegetable stock can be used instead of water, however, reduce the addition of salt.

Store the soup in an airtight container in the fridge.

Here's how to make it:

Fry the onions and garlic in the oil until they are lightly brown. Add ginger, mustard seeds, turmeric, coriander, fennel, chili flakes and sauté for a short time.
Add water, coconut milk and the lentils. Bring to the boil while stirring. Place the lid on and heat until steam streams out at the lid, then turn to low and allow to simmer for 10 minutes.
If you're using a Durotherm®, start the cooking assistant. Place the Durotherm® into the base/insulating bowl and soft cook for 5 minutes. If using a soup pot, continue to gently simmer.
Stir in the ginger and lime juice and season the soup with salt and pepper. Garnish with diced tomatoes and coconut flakes.
