1/4 cup Rice
1/2 cup Lentils of your choice – I am using split green peas
1 large onion chopped
small piece of chopped ginger
3-4 cloves of garlic
Vegetables of your choice like carrots, turnip and celery
1 tsp curry powder
2-3 tbsp oil
1/2 tsp mustard seeds
Salt per taste
1/2 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp red chilli powder
1 cup coconut milk
3-4 cups of vegetable broth

– Soak rice and lentils in water for at least 30 mins.
– Heat oil in a pot/pressure cooker. Add mustard seeds.
– Add onions, ginger , garlic and salt, turmeric and chilli powder. Fry for 2-3 mins.
– Add veggies and fry for 2-3 more mins. Add rice+ lentils.
– Add curry powder.
– Add 3-4 cups of veg broth and cup of coconut milk.
– Mix well and close the lid.
– Cook for 3-4 whistles and then turn the heat off.
– When cooker cools down, open the lid and garnish the soup as desired and serve warm.

** Soup does thickens up on standing so feel free to add water when you eat it at a later time or add more brother/coconut milk to make it thinner.
