More curry! Curried Lentil soup

[toothpaste]

Another nice winter soup. I don't remember where I got this recipe.

2-3 TBSP olive oil
1 heaping cup chopped onion
1 large grated carrot
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 peeled, seeded, chopped tomatoes. (I use a few TBSP of petite diced tomatoes in the can.)
3/4 cup lentils, rinsed
3 cups chicken or vegetable stock
2 cups water
1/2 tsp cumin
1/4-1/2 tsp Curry powder
1/4 tsp corriander
3/4 tsp sea salt
pepper to taste

In a large saucepan over medium heat, saute onion and carrot in oil til very limp and slightly brown, 15-20 minutes. Add the rest of the ingredients except salt and pepper, cover, and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes, or until lentils are tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
