this is the same meal...served in two ways :) I personally like it as just a soup but you can also serve it over rice which is the way trey preferred it. Use a big pot for this recipe because it makes a lot!
1/4 c. extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 roma tomatoes, chopped
1 tsp. minced fresh ginger
1 1/2 tsp. turmeric
1 tsp. cumin and ground coriander
1/2 tsp. cayenne and ground cinnamon
2 medium sweet potatoes, cut into 3/4" cubes
7 c. vegetable broth
1 c. brown lentils, rinsed and picked through
salt and pepper, to taste
Heat oil over medium heat in a large pot. Add onion and garlic and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions start to soften. stir in the tomatoes and ginger and cook for 3 minutes. stir in the turmeric, cumin, coriander, cinnamon, cayenne, salt, and pepper. cook and stir for 2 minutes.
add potatoes, broth and lentils. stir well and bring to a boil over high heat. once it comes to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and simmer for about 40 minutes or until lentils are cooked through and potatoes are soft.
serve with crusty bread or over rice or couscous.
