Red Lentil Curry - The Kreative Life

I’m a huge fan of curry! Anytime I get a chance I’ll order whatever is curried off of a menu or I’ll throw a little in most of my dishes.

I would eat curry chicken, curry potatoes, curry oxtails. If there was a way to curry candy, I’d probably give it a go. Yes, I’m that crazy about it!

The Gift of Red Lentil Curry Soup

This past Christmas my sister sent me a pressure cooker and I’ve never used one before so I had no idea how to use it or what the first thing I wanted to cook in it.

I had some lentils I bought a while ago that were just sitting in my cabinet and of course I had some curry on hand, so I made a  vegan and dairy free red lentil curry soup.

The flavors are so mouthwatering, the pressure cooker made it even easier to make, and the cayenne gives this recipe just a little kick.

Now that I have a pressure cooker, I’m sure there will be a lot more recipes using it. Also, since I stay stocked up on curry I’ll be bringing you more curry recipes as well.

I’m so excited to share them with you all! Enjoy!

    Believe it or not I have never tried anything that I know of that was curry flavored. Your dish looks amazing and like an awesome comfort food for a cold day.

    When I see red lentils I think of Indian inspired cuisine. I love that your food looks like it is healthy and easy to prepare for any family.

    It looks and sounds great. I’ve never had lentil soup before, this looks like it would help my cold…maybe clear my sinuses.

      Hi, Heather! If you add more cayenne it more than likely will clear up your sinuses.

    I could eat Thai red or green curry all the time. I’ve made it at home a few times, but I’ve never tried the Indian curry version. I’m curious to give this a try because I really like the way lentils absorb the rich flavors of seasonings.
