   1 1/2   c            Pink lentils
   1       tb           Finely chopped ginger
     1/2   ts           Turmeric
   1       tb           Lemon juice
   1       c            Boiling water

  Wash lentils thoroughly.  Place in a saucepan with the
  turmeric & 5 cups of water.  Bring to a boil, stirring
  often.  Reduce heat & simmer, partially covered, for
  25 minutes.  Stir occasionally.  Add lemon juice to
  lentils & cook for a further 15 minutes.  Turn off
  heat & beat with a wire whisk.
  
  Heat ghee, when very hot, add cumin seeds & fry for
  about 10 seconds. Remove pan from the heat & add red
  pepper & minced garlic.  Stir rapidly for 10 seconds
  until the garlic begins to colour, but do not let it
  brown. Pour over the hot puree.  Serve immediately.
