Instructions

Working time approx. 15 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 35 minutes

vegetarian, low carb, with red lentils

Finely chop the carrot, ginger, and garlic and sauté in a little oil. Wash the lentils thoroughly and then sauté them briefly. Then pour in about 1 liter of water, add the dried lime, and simmer for 10-15 minutes, until the lentils are soft. Add the coconut milk, green curry paste, tomatoes, and mushrooms and cook briefly. If desired, you can also use a fresh lime; it is recommended that you add the juice to the soup shortly before serving. If the soup is not seasoned enough, you can add salt or pepper. If you prefer a more Asian flavor, you can use soy sauce and vinegar.
