Method

  1. Fry onion, garlic, chillies and dried cumin/coriander in a large saucepan until onions are soft.
  2. Add diced carrots and cook for three minutes.
  3. Add red lentils and stir well for a minute, or until mixture begins to stick to the pan.
  4. Add stock and stir well. Cover, bring to boil, then simmer for 30 minutes over a low heat until all ingredients are soft and the lentils have turned mushy. Stir occasionally.
  5. Whizz with a hand blender until smooth and thick. Add chopped fresh coriander, and whizz briefly to keep green specks. Add salt & pepper to taste.
  6. If desired (and not really needed), add a dollop of soured cream, creme fraiche, greek yoghurt or anything else just prior to serving. Decorate with a coriander leaf.
