Curried lentil soup

[Guest guest]

Hi here is a recipe that I'm making for supper tonight It is high in fibre

and low in points. You can add a dollop of fat free yogurt on the top to make

it creamy. It my version of the indian lentil soups you get in restaurants

" Dals " I think they are called. I like to make a vegetable curry to accompany

this dish ( same seasonings in a pot with veggies and water thicken with

cornstarch or mashed potatoe) Happy New year

Enjoy
