Green Lentil soup with Indian spices...

Hi everyone,

It's definitely soup weather and I made this easy soup by lightly cooking a diced onion with garlic in a little olive oil then I added ginger cumin coriander turmeric nutmeg and black pepper with some frozen stir fry veg a tin of organic green lentils. I added a couple of teaspoons of gram flour with some cold water mixed to paste and added that to thicken it or I would used coconut milk or cream. I cooked it very gently over a low heat.

This is gluten free plant based and low carb and it still packs a nutritional punch and I like that. 😊

I Love your recipes Jerry, but you kind of lost me with the nutmeg? How does that Taste?

Hi Want2BHappy3 and thank you, I wondered about the nutmeg and it just adds flavour, here's the recipe I saw but I didn't have any coconut milk.

I really liked the taste and t would make a great plant based cottage pie filling if you made it a little thicker.
