lentil soup

I am making my first lentil soup and it is soooo
exciiitiiing!

First I soaked two cups of lentils overnight.

Then I drained the lentils and put them in a pot with three
litres of water, two sliced onions, curry powder, salt,
black pepper and a couple of sliced carrots (the carrots
weren't in the recipe but I am daring to be different).

In fifteen minutes I add a bunch of spinach, then ten
minutes after that I add lemon juice, and there you go -
lentil soup.

My favorite part was soaking the lentils overnight. Sexy.

Try a little curry in your hot waters. It is known to
prevent dumbing of the brain sac.

How can you approach making any meal thinking "I fancy
that.... tomorrow". ABSURD.

Failing to plan is planning to fail. Didn't you get the memo
on that?

I'm sending you for a workshop on success, and some
sensitivity training for good measure.

Also, have you noticed that all Indian waiters seem to be
mildly amused and sometimes having difficulty keeping from
laughing when you ask them questions about the menu?

I have seen them like this with other customers so I know it
isn't just me.









(it's just me, isn't it?)

Try a tin of Ship curry powder.

best curry powder EVAR

I bought a tin last week and I've wanted to eat it every
day. But I haven't because I don't want to get sick of it.

Well, to be fair, Indian waiters, like Indian doctors, they
don't do it for the love of the profession.

i eat in the restaurant-that it was simply a earth
surrounded by iron plates-of a mate from a town of Bangalore


..the cook was his wife....oh god,she was a goddess and she
moves dancing doing the food in a veru natural and
instintic way.

the curry rice and vegatables was amazing,i forgot for a
second that the modern world exist.

The lemon juice makes it to have a pleasant flavour.

you mean like a dal? That's nice too. I go to a
middle eastern style restaurant called Rumi that has
fantastic dal.

dal is excellent too, but there is also a real soup with
lentils you can eat at some places.
