Dahl Lentil Soup

This is an incredibly good tasting and healthful soup; it will also help maintain stable blood-sugar levels, leading to greater long-term satisfaction after your meal. The original recipe. listing ingredient amounts is found on page 170 of Original Fast Foods. As you watch the video, note the one substitution of 2 cups of carrot juice for 2 of the 6 cups of water. That substitution increases the flavor to an extent that any restaurant would be proud to carry it; it is absolutely delicious. Enjoy!

It will enhance the flavor and eliminate the need for boullion. I never use it and cook bean based soups almost daily.

In Utah Valley, we can get this spice at Maceys, Albertsons, Good Earth, and so forth. It's a common spice.

Comment by Jennifer Hendershot on March 26, 2010 at 8:06am: Tried this recipe last night. I have to say, it's one of my favorites! I even put a couple of large spoonfuls of the carrot pulp back into the soup right before it was finished cooking. It turned out great! I think I'll put even more next time.
