For an even richer flavor, consider using coconut milk instead of vegetable broth. Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your preferred level of spiciness. This soup freezes well, making it perfect for meal prepping. Store in airtight containers for up to 3 months.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté minced onion and garlic until fragrant and softened, about 3-5 minutes.
02
StepStir in garam masala, turmeric, and red pepper flakes, ensuring the spices coat the onion mixture evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes to bloom the spices and release their aromas.
03
StepPour in vegetable broth and add lentils. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for approximately 15 minutes, or until lentils are tender but still slightly firm.
04
StepIncorporate sweet potato cubes into the pot. Return to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are tender and lentils are fully cooked.
05
StepGently stir in fresh spinach until it wilts into the soup, which should take only 2-3 minutes. Season with salt to taste. Serve hot and enjoy!
