Instructies

Sauté the veggies and spice: Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion (chopped) and 2 carrots (sliced into discs), and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until they start to soften.

Stir in 3 cloves garlic (grated), 1 teaspoon ginger (grated), 2 teaspoons curry powder, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, and ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes. Cook for 30 seconds, just until the spices smell fragrant.

Add lentils and simmer: Pour in 5 cups vegetable broth and 1 can crushed tomatoes.

Add 1 pound butternut squash (cut into small ½ inch dice), 1 cup dried red lentils (rinsed), ¾ teaspoon salt, and a few grinds of black pepper. Bring to a gentle boil, then cover, lower the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils and squash are soft.

Adjust: Taste the soup and add more salt, pepper, or spices if you like. If you want a brighter flavor, squeeze in a little lemon juice. You can also thin the soup with a splash of broth or water if it becomes too thick.

Serve with Toppings: Ladle the soup into bowls and finish with a spoonful of Greek yogurt, fresh herbs, a squeeze of lemon and a scoop of rice.
