Add chopped onions and sauté them until they become dark brown but not burnt (this will add great taste to the soup)
Now add red washed lentils
Pour in the chicken broth and coconut milk and continue to cook at medium to low heat. Make sure to never bring the soup to a boil now as the coconut milk will break and be ruined.
Add pressed garlic (garlic is added after the liquids to make sure it doesn’t burn)
Add all of the spices
Cook for 1 hour, continuing to stir the soup so that it doesn’t attach to the bottom
Serve in a bowl and garnish with cilantro
