Tomatoes give it a lovely red tinge whereas onions and garlic impart an enticing aroma. I've blended this soup to give it a nice creamy texture without actually adding cream! it's a great soup, which fills you up before the meal so that you do not binge on other high-calorie foods.Add your private notePreparation Time: 10 minutesCooking Time: 20 minutesServes 611/2 tbsp finely chopped garlic (lehsun)1/2 cup masoor dal (split red lentil) , washed and drained3/4 cup chopped tomatoes2 tsp oil1/2 cup thinly sliced onions1/2 tsp chilli powdersalt to taste2 tsp lemon juice1.
