Recipe: Another Red Lentil Recipe

I made a variation on the red lentil and carrot soup recipe from last year. It’s spicy and satisfying.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp avocado oil

  • 1 tsp chopped garlic (from a jar is fine)

  • 2 tsp chopped ginger (also, the stuff in the jar is fine)

  • 1 tsp garam masala

  • 1 tsp ground cumin

  • 2 tsp turmeric

  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flake

  • 1 tsp salt

  • 1 large white onion diced

  • 1 large waxy yellow potato diced

  • 15 oz can of tomato sauce or crushed tomatoes

  • 2 cups red lentils, rinsed

  • 2 cups chicken broth

Follow the usual Instant Pot preparation. Add enough water to bring the level near the max line. Pressure cook for 12 minutes and let the pressure release automatically. It’s better heated up the next day. Add some cilantro leaves for a nice presentation.
