Ingredients
- 1 Tablespoon neutral cooking oil see Notes, generic cooking oil
- 3 green onion sliced, bulbs
- 1 Tablespoon ginger finely chopped fresh, fresh
- 3 Pieces garlic finely chopped, clove
- 1 ½ Tablespoons Thai curry paste buy Thai Curry Paste
- 1 Tablespoon red chili pepper flakes
- 1 Cup red lentils dried split Masoor dal
- 1 Cup coconut milk
- 4 Cups water mixed with concentrated stock
- salt to Taste
- 1 lime juice
To Garnish:
- cilantro Freshly chopped Coriander, fresh
- green onions Freshly chopped
Instructions
- Heat up a soup pot with cooking oil.
- Add in your sliced green onion bulbs, chopped ginger and garlic.
- Stir fry the content for a minute or two on higher heat until the ingredients soften.
- Add the Thai curry paste, as well as the chili flakes and stir-fry for another 2 minutes on a higher flame.
- Next, add the red lentils. I soak mine first for about 20 minutes before I start cooking so that the lentils cook faster.
- Pour in the coconut Milk as well as the veg broth and mix the whole contents well.
- Allow the soup to cook for about 15 minutes or until the lentils are cooked through.
- Season with salt to taste and pour in the lime juice. Mix well.
- Serve the detox lentil soup hot with freshly chopped cilantro and the cut green spring onion stalks.
Notes
- For the oil use a wholesome virgin oil variety such as coconut cooking oil or olive oil
- For the broth use homemade veg broth if possible or gluten-free packet broth.
- The Curry Paste can be a Thai yellow or red curry paste. You can substitute this with ½ Teaspoon Turmeric powder + ¼ Teaspoon Black pepper + ¼ Teaspoon red Chili powder, however, the taste won't be all the same. I recommend buying those small Thai curry paste sachets because they are cheap, are versatile and add so much flavor to various meals.
- You can choose to add one tablespoon or two of the Thai curry paste to the soup. It depends how intensive you want the soup to taste.
