INSTRUCTIONS
Wash lentils thoroughly. Place in a saucepan with the turmeric & 5
cups of water. Bring to a boil, stirring often. Reduce heat & simmer,
partially covered, for 25 minutes. Stir occasionally. Add lemon juice
to lentils & cook for a further 15 minutes. Turn off heat & beat with
a wire whisk. Heat ghee, when very hot, add cumin seeds & fry for
about 10 seconds. Remove pan from the heat & add red pepper & minced
garlic. Stir rapidly for 10 seconds until the garlic begins to colour,
but do not let it brown. Pour over the hot puree. Serve immediately.
