W. SONOMA INDIAN RED LENTIL SOUP
This recipe is from the Williams Sonoma "Soup for Supper" cookbook. I think it is exceptionally good. While lentil soup is usually comfort food, this variation makes it a bit exotic, too. The fragrant Indian spices lighten and brighten the simple, homey flavor of the soup. Red lentils have a tendency to break down into a coarse puree as they cook, so if you prefer some texture, omit the blender or food processor step.

Steps:
- Pick over the red lentils and discard any misshapen lentils or stones.
- Rinse lentils and drain.
- In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
- Add the onion and saute, stirring occasionally, until tender and translucent (8 to 10 minutes).
- Add the coriander, cumin, ginger, turmeric, and cayenne and stir to mix well.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, to release the flavors of the spices (2 to 3 minutes).
- Add the lentils and then gradually add the water or stock, stirring constantly.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce the heat to low, cover partially, and simmer until the lentils are very soft (30 to 40 minutes).
- Remove from the heat and let cool slightly.
- Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender or food processor.
- Return the soup to a clean saucepan and place over medium heat.
- Stir in the tomatoes and lemon juice and cook until heated through.
- Season with salt and black pepper.

INDIAN LENTIL SOUP
This soup takes a couple hours to make but is well worth it and freezes beautifully! I received this recipe from a colleague but I believe the original source is Madhur Jaffrey.

Steps:
- Combine the lentils, 2 boxes of chicken stock and turmeric in a heavy pot and bring to a boil. Cover, leaving the lid slightly ajar, turn heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes.
- While soup simmers, peel potatoes and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. When soup has cooked for 30 minutes, add cut potato. Cover, leaving the lid slightly ajar again, and continue simmering for another 30 minutes.
- During the second simmering period, put the garlic and ginger into an electric blender. Add 4 1/2 T water and blend until you have a smooth paste. (I used a food processor for this step. You don't need it to be a paste but it should be finely chopped.).
- Once the soup base has finished cooking it needs to be pureed. Blender 3 batches. (I left one batch unblended to give the soup more texture.) Put pureed soup in a large bowl and set aside. Rinse and wipe out your soup pot.
- Place cooked and cubed chicken in a separate bowl and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to mix. Next, pour oil into soup pot and set over medium heat. When oil is hot, put in the garlic/ginger paste, cumin, coriander and cayenne. Fry, stirring continuously, until the spice mixture is slightly browned and separates from the oil. Put in chicken pieces and fry for 1-2 minutes. Add 14 1/2 oz. chicken stock and bring to boil. Cover and turn heat to low; simmer for 5 minutes.
- Pour in pureed soup and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer and serve.

INDIAN LENTIL SOUP (DAL SHORVA)
An inexpensive, easy-to-make and delicious soup. This slightly modified recipe stems from Mumtaz Khan at Mumtaz Paan House in Bradford, England. Mung beans is the exquisite choice, but red or yellow lentils also make a delicious result (green lentils are not recommended). The chicken stock can be replaced with vegetable stock for a vegetarian variety. This recipe can also be made with less liquid and served as a stew.¨ Improvement, a little off tradition, but works even better: 1) Fry the lentils/beans for a few seconds in ghee before adding the spices and liquid. 2) Add just a little tomato purée (1 tsp) to the soup. 3) Add one diced potato together with the lentils/beans.
