Time 1h45m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 medium-size onions, chopped
2 medium-size tart apples, peeled, cored and chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon curry powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground mustard seed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pound dry split peas
8 cups water, approximately
Juice of 1 lime
Plain yogurt for garnish

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large, heavy saucepan. Add the onions, apples, garlic and ginger and saute over medium-low heat until tender but not brown. Stir in curry powder, cumin and mustard seed.
  • Stir in split peas, add seven cups of the water, bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for about one hour, or a little longer, until the peas are tender. Stir in another cup or so of water that will give the soup the proper consistency.
  • Puree the soup in one or more batches in a food processor. The texture can be more or less smooth, according to your taste. If necessary add additional water.
  • Return the soup to the saucepan, add the lime juice and check the seasonings. Reheat and serve with a dollop of yogurt spooned into the center of each serving.
