I recently tried a curry yellow split pea soup at one of my favorite local delis and was inspired to replicate it at home. My version turned into a more hearty, thick stew rather than soup, which is what I was after.

As it is it reminds me very much of an Indian dal and pairs perfectly with grilled naan and a dollop of yogurt or a cooling raita. See less

Absolutely delicious! We loved the spices, so warm and comforting.
The only thing different I did was use a soup blend which consists of red split lentils, green and yellow split peas, barley and rice. Since the barley and rice need more liquid,...more
