Categories     Tomato     Lentil

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup dried lentils
6 cups water
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 tablespoon coriander seeds
8 black peppercorns
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon tamarind concentrate (see Note on pages 51-52)
3 large tomatoes, coarsely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
Kernels cut from 2 ears fresh corn, or 1 cup frozen corn
Salt to taste
Tempering Oil
2 teaspoons ghee
2 teaspoons black mustard seeds
1 dried red chile, broken into bits
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Wash the lentils thoroughly, being sure to remove any small stones or dirt. Place them, along with the water, in the slow cooker insert.
  • In an electric coffee mill or a mortar and pestle, grind the cumin seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns to a coarse powder.
  • In a bowl, combine the ground spices, turmeric, tamarind concentrate, tomatoes, and garlic; add to the lentils.
  • Cook, covered, on low for 5 to 6 hours, or until the lentils are quite tender and the flavors have melded.
  • Add the corn and salt to taste just before serving so that the corn retains its fresh flavor and texture.
  • To make the tempering oil, heat the ghee in a frying pan, then add the mustard seeds and broken chile and sauté until the seeds begin to pop. Quickly remove from the heat and drizzle a tiny bit over each bowl of soup.
  • Sprinkle with the fresh cilantro and serve.
  • Suggested Beverage
  • Any chilled, aromatic white wine will do nicely here.
