Spicy Tomato and Lentil Soup

Scott Phillips

Servings:4

This thick Indian-spiced spin on tomato soup, great on its own, would pair well with grilled cheese, especially one made with a little chutney. Look for roasted chickpeas where nuts are sold, ormake them yourself.

Preparation

  • Heat the oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger, garlic, coriander, cumin, and chile, and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 45 seconds.
  • Add the tomatoes and their juice, the broth, and lentils. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils are tender, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Purée with an immersion blender or in batches in a regular blender until smooth. Thin with a little water if you like. Serve with a dollop of yogurt, and garnish with the roasted chickpeas, if using.

Tip

Use kitchen scissors to neatly and quickly chop tomatoes right in the can.

    The soup turned out ok, but it lacked flavour.

    I might have gotten the spices all wrong, but this did not turn out well at all. Making it worse, I prepared this for a lunch I was hosting. Lesson learned: Never try out a new recipe on company.

    When young, my children enjoyed lentil soup. While cooking, I added a small amount of spinach finely cut. This plate can be accompanied with Jasmine rice and garnished with bits of scallions. Of course, no hot stuff for kids then. This is a great source of iron! DELICIOUS!!!

    Wow.. this is wonderful! I did alter the proportions of ginger & garlic .. 1 - 1 1/4 TBS garlic / 1/2 to 3/4 TBS ginger... also, I did not have fresh chiles so I substituted 1 tsp of aleppo pepper (Turkey). And, I add a a handful more of red lentils. Delicious!
