Indian lentil soup.

This very easy recipe works either as a curry over rice or as a great alternative to hummus. Serve hot or cold with fresh vegetables, naan, pita, or baked tortilla chips. It's a good way to get enough fibre into your diet!

This is a desi dish usually made in the sub-continent. I have learnt this from my maternal grandmother. She used to make exceptional Saag Daal. This is a very common dish in our household.
It is a complete meal. It tastes delicious when spinach and lentils are boiled together, you can eat with spoon like soup or even with whole wheat bread or roti as we call it in sub-continent.

An Indian lentil dish that is served on white basmati rice.

This is a very inexpensive protein meal that can be made in big batches (this makes almost 20 cups), frozen, refrigerated for up to a week, can be watered down to use as a soup, is great reheated with cauliflower, carrots, peas, spinach, squash, added to it for a complete meal and is, of course, fabulous with a half cup of brown or basmati rice. If you don't have all the spices, double on the the curry powder, it is still pretty tasty--I sometimes use a quarter cup of curry paste in a pinch. And the hot chili pepper is optional for those who don't like hot stuff (I use a mild curry powder or paste).
