Comments
Loved this soup. Used a small birdseye chilli. Didn't have any celery or coriander, so left these out. Used olive oil instead of margarine. Really nice soup - perfect easy dinner with crusty bread. thanks
My partner loved it, but it was a bit too spicy for me, I was a bit heavy handed with the turmeric and ginger, making it again tonight and have been a bit more conservative with the spices.
I made this tonight - really yummy!
Very enjoyable. Thank you.

This is a really nice soup, perfect to use ingredients on hand.
Sorry, I should have specified that it was dried lentils.. Also, I have modified the soup to contain less water as the batch I made tonight was too runny.
Red lentils are dried lentils, usually found in the soup aisle of the supermarket. They dissolve rather than remain whole. Consequently, red lentlis are also used to thicken the soup.
Your soup recipe sounds delicious - can I just clarify 'red lentils and are they 'dry' not tinned' Can't wait to make it. Thanks
