Categories     Main Course

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 medium onion (diced) (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger (about 1 pinky-size piece ginger)
1 tablespoon curry powder
2 cups baby carrots or about 4 medium carrots (peeled and diced large) (about 2 cups total)
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
3/4 cup dried split red lentils (rinsed well)
1 teaspoon kosher salt + more to taste
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper + more to taste
Fresh cilantro
Coconut milk
Smoked paprika
Cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Saute onion for 5 minutes
  • Hit the "Saute" button on your Instant Pot. Add olive oil. When hot, add the onions. Saute until transluscent, about 5 minutes. Add the ginger and curry powder and cook, stirring, until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the carrots, broth, lentils, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Place the lid on the Instant Pot and make sure the release valve is in the "sealing" position. Press the "Manual" button and set the timer for 10 minutes.

  • Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired. Ladle into bowls, garnish if desired, and serve.

CURRIED LENTIL SOUP WITH CARROTS



Curried Lentil Soup with Carrots image

I love the spices in this. Just a little bit hot, with the flavor of curry that I love. It warms me up inside. I'm always watching my pepper plants which I brought indoors over the winter to see if they have a few peppers on them to put in something like this. My Thai dragon plants have been giving me peppers all along (with a little help!) When I run a little low, I like to visit the Asian grocer for a big pack of green chillis (which are almost just as good), but I like the red ones best.
