Ingredients:

Serving

3/4 cup frozen spinach
1/2 cup diced carrot
1 1/4 cups dried split peas
broth
1 cup tomato juice
2 1/2 cups water
2 -4 tsp minced garlic
1 small onion, sliced
1/4 large tomato (1 thick slice)
1 large minced jalapenos or 1 large habanero pepper
1 small onion, diced
spices
1 tbsp vegetable oil or 1 tbsp ghee
1 1/2 tsp hot curry powder
1/2 tsp turmeric
3/4 tsp coriander
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Over high heat in a large soup pot, combine 1/2 tbs of the ghee or oil, garlic, minced pepper, and tomato slice. Saute over high heat until close to burning.
Add 1/4 to 1/2 the spice mixture and the rest of the oil, if you need to (sometimes the extra oil is unneccssary).
Saute until spices are slightly roasted and everything is nice and melded.
Add the tomato juice and water, allow to come to a boil.
Add 1/2 of the remaining spice mixture and the split peas.
Simmer for 30-35 minutes.
Add carrots and last of the spice mixture.
Simmer for 10-15 minutes.
Mash the split peas with a spoon or potato masher, or use a blender, then return to the pot.
Add spinach and spice to taste, simmer for a final 10-20 minutes. Serve hot with rice or roti.
