5-MIN SPICY LENTIL SOUP


This recipe is at the other end of the culinary spectrum from the tofu red curry I posted last week. It literally takes five minutes, involves zero prep and requires a little bit of cheating.

At our house, we eat Indian food at least once a week. Spicy yellow daal and mattar paneer from CoCo's (available at Villa Supermarket) is our go-to dinner after those manic Mondays. But we can only eat rice, daal and paneer for so long.

One of my quick weekday lunches has become this spicy lentil soup, using the leftover daal. With a dollop of greek yogurt and some buttery toast, this hits the spot when you need something quick and easy.

Serves 1.

Ingredients:
- 1 cup leftover spicy yellow daal
- 1/2 cup water (adjust based on preference)

Mix together and pop in the microwave for 2-3 minutes. Top with a dollop of greek yogurt on top and some freshly cracked black pepper. Enjoy!
