Looking out from my window feels like winter...but no, defiantly not in Singapore.I can only dream about winter here or make one for me. So whats makes you feel more wintry then good hearty soup? Nothing . soup that what i craved for today. Red split lentils soup. Like the one my momma do for us in the winter. It's my yoga day soup. So? What you are staring at? go to the kitchen get your stuff ready and cook it . it's so easy . Serving: serve with country bread, or croûtons. ( i like it with Kellogg cornflakes simple and yummy) I like serving tick yogurt on the side to add to the soup. Yogurt Is cooling, adds flavor and help digestion. Because it is so easy to do and all ingredient are available easily in every house you can enjoy this soup with out plaining ahead.
