  • 3 medium carrots, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small red chili, finely chopped

  • 3 c. water
  • 3 c. vegetable broth

Directions:

1. Heat oil in a large saucepan. Stir in onion, celery and carrots; cook until soft, about three minutes. Add garlic, chili pepper, ground coriander, curry and turmeric and stir for an additional minute.

2. Stir in lentils, water and broth.
