It isn’t a usual thing to find lentils in your soup, but trust us when we say that addition of lentils to your soup makes them nutritious and flavourful. Compared to other types of dried beans, lentils are relatively easy to prepare and they readily absorb a variety of wonderful flavors from other foods and seasonings and most importantly, these are available throughout the year.

These little-pebble-looking legumes are a huge part of South Indian dishes-like Sambhar, Rasam etc. This combination of lentil and tamarind along with split peas and vegetables is also a staple in the South Indian diet. It always accompanies snacks such as dosas (lentil crepes) and idlis (lentil dumplings). A traditional South Indian feast wouldn’t be complete without this flavorful source of protein. Add cumin or fenugreek and it will lend a pleasantly pungent aroma to the dish.

In addition, lentils are packed with benefits. They are a good source of cholesterol-lowering fiber, help manage blood-sugar and rich in dietary fiber. We are convinced that hearing so much about this mighty legume, you can wait to try. Look no further as we have brewed a hot and comforting cup of Lentil and Tamarind Soup accompanied with Greek Quesadilla or Chicken Tikka Wrap.

You don’t need an occasion to slurp it up, perfect for any-time-hunger!
