ingredients
1 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup onion chopped
4 cloves of garlic minced
2 tablespoons fresh ginger minced
1.5 tablespoons curry powder
1.5 teaspoons ground cumin
1 cinnamon stick
1.5 cup lentils (pick over to ensure no debris or rocks)
8 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
0.25 cup fresh cilantro chopped
0.25 cup lemon juice
directions
Step 1
Place a large pot over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the onions and saut until they are soft and slightly translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger, curry and cumin and saut another 5 minutes.
Step 2
Add the cinnamon stick, lentils and chicken broth to the pot and stir. Turn up the heat and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and allow the soup to simmer, partially covered for about 40 minutes or until the lentils are cooked.
Step 3
Take the soup off of the heat. Remove half of the soup and allow to cool slightly* or until warm to the touch. Keep the other half warm on the stove. Place the cooled soup in a blender (or process with a hand mixer) and pulse until pureed. Stir pureed mixture back into pot of soup. Blend well. *Note-It is not advised to puree hot items in a blender due to the build of pressure generated from the steam. Be safe and allow your soup to cool slightly to prevent injuring yourself.
Step 4
To serve, place the soup in bowls and garnish with cilantro and sriracha
