Ingredients
- Sufficient water for covering
- A portion of dried split peas measuring 1 cup
- Approximately 4 cups of water, adjust as necessary
- Delicate touch of ground turmeric, around ¾ teaspoon
- A hint of dried chile pepper, approximately ½ teaspoon
- Just the right amount of salt, around 1 teaspoon
- Tangy zest of 2 tablespoons of lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons of concentrated tomato paste
- A drizzle of vegetable oil, about 1 tablespoon
- A whisper of minced garlic, approximately ½ teaspoon
- Subtle fragrance of cumin seeds, around ½ teaspoon
Step 1
Begin by covering the split peas with water in a large bowl, ensuring they are submerged at least by an inch. Allow them to soak for at least 30 minutes to soften.
Step 2
After soaking, drain the split peas and place them in a large pot. Add 4 cups of water, turmeric, ground dried chile pepper, and salt to the pot. Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat to medium-low. Simmer the mixture, adding more water if necessary, until the split peas reach a tender consistency, which typically takes around 30 to 40 minutes.
Step 3
Once the split peas are tender, incorporate lemon juice and tomato paste into the pot. Increase the heat to medium and continue cooking for another 10 minutes or until the mixture thickens to your liking.
Step 4
To enhance the flavor, heat vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Sauté garlic and cumin seeds in the hot oil until the garlic turns golden brown, which usually takes about 5 minutes. Stir this aromatic mixture into the soup for an extra burst of flavor.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. To keep your spices fresh and flavorful, store them in a cool, dark place away from heat and sunlight. A spice rack or drawer is a great option to keep them organized and easily accessible for when you're making your Mulligatawny soup.
- 2. Store your lentils and rice in airtight containers to prevent them from absorbing moisture and becoming stale. This will ensure that they retain their delicious texture and nutty flavor when added to your soup.
