Golden Lentil Soup
As I've already mentioned I am not a soup person so didnt bother to try soups all these
days. But when I saw this protein rich soup in Tarladala cookbook I wanted to give a try.
The orginal recipe called for masoor dhal since I didnt have it, I went ahead with moong
dhal. Its a easy, quick and a filling soup.
Ingredients:
Makes 2 bowls
Moong Dhal - 1/4 cup
Carrot - 1 small
Tomato - 1
Turmeric powder - a pinch
Chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Pepper powder - 1 tsp
Salt - to taste
Lemon juice - 1/2 tsp
To temper:
Cloves -1
Cinnamom - 1/4 inch piece
Garlic - 3 cloves
Onion - 1/2

My Notes:
For the above mentioned quantity it gives 2 generous bowls of soup. It is very thick so
add water according to ur liking.
Adding carrot is purely optional, you can very well skip it or add any other veggie of your
choice.
I didnt want the flavour of cloves and cinnamom to dominate so I discarded it before
grinding. You can grind with it too.
