Eastern-Style Mulligatawny Soup image

This is the recipe from Shalimar Restaurant in Albany, NY. It is amazing. Enjoy this soup with some vegetable samosas and cheese naan bread. As with most soups, the longer you cook it, the more flavorful it is. Also, this soup is better when its a little thicker rather than watery.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

water to cover
1 cup dried split peas
4 cups water, or more as needed
¾ teaspoon ground turmeric
½ teaspoon ground dried chile pepper
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon cumin seeds

Steps:

  • Pour enough water over split peas in a large bowl to cover by at least 1 inch; soak at least 30 minutes.
  • Drain split peas and transfer to a large pot. Pour 4 cups water over the split peas. Stir turmeric, ground dried chile pepper, and salt into the water; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, adding more water as needed to thin, until split peas are tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Stir lemon juice and tomato paste into the split pea mixture; increase heat to medium and cook until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes more.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Fry garlic and cumin seeds in hot oil until the garlic browns, about 5 minutes; stir into the soup.

This soup was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less chili powder. Otherwise, it was a great soup and I would definitely make it again.

This soup was a disappointment. The flavor was very one-dimensional and the texture was gritty. I would not recommend this recipe.

This soup was just okay. The flavor was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added more spices.

I'm not a huge fan of Indian food, but this soup was actually really good. The flavors were well-balanced and the soup wasn't too spicy. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new soup recipe to try.
