Dice the onion and garlic, and chop the tomatoes and carrots. Briefly sauté the onions, garlic, and lentils in the coconut oil. Then add the tomatoes, carrots, broth, and coconut milk and simmer gently for about 20 minutes. Season to taste with spices and lemon juice. Purée the soup or serve as is. Garnish with herbs, and the delicious dish is complete. Tip: You can also lightly toast the spices first and then crush them in a mortar. This brings out the flavors even better.
