Coconut red lentil soup (Esalen Ayurvedic dal) from 101 Cookbooks by Heidi Swanson

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Can substitute olive oil or coconut oil for ghee, and kale chips for cilantro.

    I didn't care for this soup finding it bland despite the ingredient list which looked good. It was missing something so I added some lime juice and it improved it a bit. I usually make my soups with light chicken stock and that would help this soup, I think.

    This soup is fabulous & does not need any changes. Have made it many times which is the true test for a recipe...
