When the nights draw in and the fog comes down, there is nothing quite so comforting and satisfying as a bowl of homemade soup. Among soups, there are few that work as well as lentil soups, as can be seen by their appearance in cuisines from all over the world. This recipe is basically an English one, given the Spice Mountain touch by the addition of our specially blended chickpea/dhal curry powder. The soup only needs some hot buttered toast to go with it. But if you’re really hungry, try accompanying it with a fish finger sandwich for total old school satisfaction!
