I need to make some soup tonight, and this sounds perfect, with a good bit of spice and lots of vegetables and lentils.
I'll let you know how it goes :)
Receta Carrot and Ginger Soup
This is a hearty warming soup, filled with vitamin A and herbs which will prepare your respiratory system for exposure to colds and flu. It has a subtle curry flavor.

- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 Tbs. curry powder

Direcciones
- In the bottom of the soup pot, saute the onion for 3 - 5 minutes until they start to become clear.
- Add the spices and sea veggies. Cook a couple minutes longer.
- Stir in the carrots (preferably organic - they make a tastier soup), cooking for another 5 minutes.
- Add stock and lentils.
- Bring almost to a boil, just at the liquid starts to steam.
- Simmer over low heat for 45 minutes to an hour until the carrots and lentils are quite soft.
- Liquify the soup with a hand blender or VitaMix.
- Ladle soup into bowls, adding milk, if desired, and a dollop of miso.
- Serve with a good hearty pumpernickel bread or whole wheat crackers.
