Hearty Lentil & Dahl Soup Combo

I made a combination of these two recipes:

Hearty Lentil Soup

Dahl Soup

So here is the basic recipe  I came up with:

Ingredients:

1 medium onion

4 or 5 cloves of garlic minced / chopped

2 or 3 Celery stalks

1 or 2 Carrots

2 Tomatoes

1 medium eggplant

A few dashes of dried chopped up ‘hot peppers’

1/2 to 1 tsp of Turmeric

1 to 2 tsp of curry powder

1 to 1/2 cup lentils

2 1/2 to 3 1/2 cups water

a splash or two of olive oil

Directions

Chop everything to whatever size you prefer

Saute onions, garlic, carrot and celery for a little bit

Add Tomatoes and eggplant

Simmer for a couple minutes

Add lentils, stir

Add water

Bring to boil for a moment, turn burner to low heat and simmer until lentils are cooked. It should take about 30 to 45 minutes.

This is also good over rice.
