Pour this gorgeous soup over rice or enjoy it all on its own - the choice is yours. We've used asafoetida for those delicious onion and garlic flavours. Curry leaves and fenugreek leaves add their savoury taste to the soup, and tamarind adds a flavoursome tang. Although we've used toor dal, black pepper, coriander, cumin and red chillies for extra flavour, the soup isn't spicy.
