Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spiced Sweet Potato and Red Lentil Soup.
Step 1
To start your delicious soup, grab a large pot and warm up some olive oil over medium-low heat.
Step 2
Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the chopped onion and sauté it until it turns a lovely translucent color, which should take about five minutes.
Step 3
Next, add in the sweet potatoes, carrots, minced garlic, garam masala, seasoned salt, cayenne pepper, and a sprinkle of salt and black pepper.
Step 4
Stir everything together and let it cook for another five minutes, stirring occasionally to keep things from sticking.
Step 5
Now it’s time to pour in the chicken broth and water, bringing the mixture to a lively boil.
Step 6
Let it bubble away for about ten minutes, allowing all those wonderful flavors to blend beautifully.
Step 7
After that, add the chopped spinach and red lentils to the pot.
Step 8
Bring the soup back to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 9
This is when the magic happens—the lentils will become tender, and the soup will thicken to your desired consistency.
Step 10
Enjoy the comforting aroma filling your kitchen as you create this hearty dish!.
