Ingredients
2 tsp cumin seeds
pinch chilli flakes
2 tbsp olive oil
olive oil
600g carrots
Carrot
, washed and coarsely grated (no need to peel)
140g split red lentils
1l hot vegetable stock (from a cube is fine)
125ml milk
plain yogurt
yogurt
and naan bread, to serve
Method
Heat a large saucepan and dry-fry the cumin seeds and chilli flakes for 1 min,
or until they start to jump around the pan and release their aromas. Scoop out
about half of the seeds with a spoon and set aside. Add the oil, carrot,
lentils, stock and milk to the pan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 15 mins
until the lentils have swollen and softened.
Whizz the soup with a stick blender or in a food processor until smooth (or
leave it chunky if you prefer). Season to taste and finish with a dollop of
yogurt and a sprinkling of the reserved toasted spices. Serve with warmed naan
breads.
