Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat the slow cooker if necessary. Put half the cumin seeds, half the chili flakes, the oil, carrots, lentils, and stock in the pot. Cover and cook on High for 3 hours until the lentils are tender.
-
Dry-fry the remaining cumin seeds and chili flakes until fragrant.
-
When the lentils are done, stir in the milk and whizz the soup with a stick blender or in a food processor until smooth (or leave it chunky, if you prefer). Add a splash of water if the soup is a bit thick for you. Season to taste and finish with a dollop of yogurt and a sprinkle of the toasted spices. Serve with warmed naan bread.
