Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a big pot over medium heat, add onions and garlic, cook for a few minutes until fragrant but not burnt.

  2. 2

    Add the tomatoes & the juice, mash them up in small chunks with a wooden spoon.

  3. 3

    Add the chicken broth, leaving about half of a box for thinning the soup later.

  4. 4

    Turn heat to maximum, add the parsley and the lentils. Bring to a boil, then cook over medium heat for about 20 minutes, or until lentils are soft.

  5. 5

    Add the masala, curry and chili flakes half way and mix well.

  6. 6

    Serve with fresh parsley for garnish, with some freshly ground black pepper, and a small wedge of lemon. It really kicks it up a notch (unfortunately I didn't get the lemon when I made this, boo!)

  7. 7

    I put this soup into individual microwavable containers for lunch, and before taking them to work, I would add a bit of chicken broth, because it thickens up quite a lot
