Friends, if you love Indian cuisine, then be sure to cook a fragrant, spicy soup "Masurdal" from lentils. I have tried a lot of different dishes with lentils, with different spices, but this is the first time I try this soup, or rather, I have eaten such a soup more than once, but I have not tried it with such spices yet. For this recipe, use Bravolli's red lentils, they cook quickly and boil well, which is a must for this dish.

First, prepare all the ingredients you need for Masurdal Lentil Soup.

Pour lentils into a saucepan.

Pour in cold water, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to low and cook for 15 minutes, covered.

While the lentils are cooking, let's do the soup dressing.

Make criss-cross cuts on the tomato, place it in a deep bowl and cover with boiling water for 1 minute, then pour over with cold water and peel off the skin without effort.

Heat a skillet with butter or olive oil, add turmeric, garam masala, chopped chili and ginger, and heat until light aroma over medium heat.

Add chopped onions and carrots and fry until soft.

Then add the tomato cut into small pieces and fry.

Put the dressing in the lentils, salt to taste, stir, boil for 10 minutes.

Delicious, aromatic soup "Masurdal" from lentils is ready, you need to serve it hot, preferably with cilantro, if you like it.

Enjoy your meal!
