- 600g carrots, washed and coarsely grated (no need to peel)

Method

1.

Dry-fry 2 tsp cumin seeds and a pinch of chilli flakes in a big pot for 1 minute, or until they start to move around and emit their scents.

2.

With a spoon, scoop out about half of the mixture and set it aside. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, 600 grams of roughly chopped carrots, 140 grams of split red lentils, 1-litre boiling vegetable stock, and 125 millilitres of milk to a boil in a saucepan.

3.

Cook for 15 minutes, or until the lentils have softened and swelled.

4.

Using a stick blender or a food processor, puree the soup until smooth (or leave it chunky if you prefer).

5.

Season to taste, then top with a dollop of plain yoghurt and the toasted spices that were set aside.

Bon appétit!

TIPS: MAKE IT DAIRY FREE

Use a can of reduced-fat coconut milk instead of the milk for a fuller, dairy-free alternative.
