MASOOR DAL (SPICED RED LENTILS)
What I have come to understand is that how food looks as you prepare it can make as much difference to the cook as it does, on the plate, to the person who gets to eat it. When the skies are drab and life feels a little gray, I am absurdly cheered by the fresh brightness of a vibrantly orange dal, a red lentil stew spiced with turmeric, chili and ginger, and colored with sweet potatoes and tomatoes. Just seeing that mixture in the pan lifts my spirits. It helps that a dal is simple to make: a bit of chopping and the stew all but cooks itself. And it can be made in advance and then reheated, always a bonus. This dal makes a wonderful, exuberant partner to broiled salmon, but I love it without meat, too, when I partner it with my "bright rice."

Steps:
- In a large saucepan over medium-low heat, heat oil, and sauté onion until softened. Add sweet potato, and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add minced ginger and garlic; stir, and reduce heat to low.
- Finely dice chili, keeping seeds if you wish to add more heat. Add chili, lentils, coriander, cumin, turmeric and ground ginger to pan. Stir until lentils are well coated with oil. Add tomatoes and 4 cups water. Raise heat to bring to a boil, then reduce heat until mixture is at a fast simmer. Cook uncovered until lentils and potatoes are soft, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes.
- Season to taste with salt, and continue to simmer until mixture has thickened, about 10 minutes. Whisk dal to amalgamate lentils and sweet potatoes. If dal is too soupy, increase heat and cook for a little longer.
- To serve, place dal in a serving bowl and sprinkle with chopped cilantro. If desired, shave thin strips of fresh coconut on top. Serve hot.

Steps:
- In a large soup pot heat oil, garam masala and ground seeds over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook for about 3 minutes, stirring often. Add carrots and celery and cook for a further 8 minutes or so, stirring often. Don't worry if the bottom of the pot begins to darken a bit, because this releases the spicy flavours and will be lifted into the soup when you add water. In the last 2 minutes add garlic, ginger and turmeric. Add water, salt, pepper, soya sauce, butternut and dried lentils. Bring to the boil, stirring well, reduce heat to low, cover and allow to simmer for an hour or so. Using a hand/stick blender, blend the soup very well in the pot, adding enough orange juice to bring the soup to the right consistency and balance between sweetness and spiciness. Can be served immediately, or allowed to rest before reheating and serving.
