Ингредиенты
- 3/4 c. yellow split mung beans
- 1/8 tsp tumeric
- 3/4 c. grated potatoes
- 3/4 c. thinly-sliced onions
- 2 c. grated cucumber
- 1 1/2 tsp salt

Инструкции
- Wash and pick over the mung beans, then put in a large saucepan with the tumeric and 2 1/2 c. water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, for about 30 min - till the beans are tender. Stir occasionally.
- Puree coarsely, then measure and add in sufficient warm water to make 5 c. of puree. Add in the potatoes, onions, cucumbers, and salt to the puree, and bring to a boil, stirring, over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 5 min. At this point, you can remove the soup from the heat and keep till you are ready to serve.
- When ready to serve, bring the soup to a simmer. In a small pan, bring the oil to the smoking point, add in the cumin and black pepper, and fry till the cumin turns dark brown - a couple seconds. Remove from heat quickly and pour into the soup. Stir in the lemon juice and cilantro leaves and mix thoroughly. Taste for seasoning, and serve warm, with a spray of whole cilantro leaves on top.
- Serve warm to 6 to 8 people.
- Comments: It's an exotic first course; distinctively the subcontinent of India.
