Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the onions and garlic. Wash and chop the bell pepper and celery. Peel and dice the carrot and ginger.
  2. Heat the oil in a saucepan and sauté the ginger, onion, garlic and the curry powder in it for about 1 minute. Wash the lentils in a colander, drain and add to the onions with paprika, celery and carrots. Pour in the vegetable stock and coconut milk and bring to the boil. Simmer gently for about 20-25 minutes, until the lentils have crumbled and the vegetables are soft. Now puree the soup with the hand blender and possibly strain it through a sieve. Season the soup with lime juice, salt and cayenne pepper and add the finely chopped Thai basil.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
