I made this recipe yesterday and it was great. It does take a little longer to cook than indicated, however. For anyone unsure, it's very similar to split pea soup, except instead of the traditional ham-bone for flavor you get to enjoy a little Indian flare. This goes great with a little ghee sauteed kielbasa!

glad you enjoyed it!!! cooking time can definitely vary, depending on the lentils you use. love the idea of adding kielbasa!

made this and it was delicious. First time I tried to make ghee and then cook with it, gives the onions a delicious rich flavor. Usually I use oil but the butter is worth it for a special occasion.

so glad you enjoyed it! whole foods also sells a really delicious organic ghee. i sometimes buy it in bulk at indian groceries too.

this is fabulous! added spinach and an egg, as you suggested, and topped with some sambal oelek. i can see why you eat this every morning.
