INSTRUCTIONS
Place all ingredients in a pot. Cover with water by about an inch or so.
Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cook for 1-2 hours,
until tender. You may have to add more water to maintain a good degree of
"soupiness." Correct seasonings only after done--add more salt or curry
powder, as necessary.
NOTE: The recipe I borrow from calls for the soup to be run through a
seive to smooth it out. Personally, I like a chunky soup, so I omit this
step. The recipe on the package of dry lentils makes a good starting
point, too. Just add curry to taste.
