How to get the BEST Vegan Lentil Curry Soup:

Lentils
I use a mix of green or brown lentils and split red lentils for best texture! The red lentils breakdown for the most part creating a thicker consistency for the soup. The brown or green lentils stay formed adding most of the texture. Use both for best results but cater to your preferences too!
 
Want to add kidney beans, chickpeas? Go for it! I am all about changing things up especially if you’ll enjoy it a bit more.
 
Sweet potatoes
The sweet potatoes add amazing, hearty texture as well as a hint of sweetness! I highly recommend adding them in if possible.
 
Not a fan of sweet potatoes? Regular potatoes are also a great addition!
Other vegetables:
I love adding carrots but I have also enjoyed added mushrooms, celery and zucchini. Do you have any vegetables you’d like to add in?
 
Coconut milk
I highly advise against using another substitute for this as it creates the best texture and taste!
 
However, if you need an alternative you can try making a cashew cream by soaking ¾ cup cashews in hot water for a few hours and blending them with 2 cups water, salt and 1 tbsp sugar. It’s the closest you can get to a great consistency and flavor.
 
Serve with a nice slice of toasted sourdough bread … dip it in your curry soup and fall in love!
