Pigeon Pea Soup Version 2 aka Varn
I like this version more than the previous one. I could eat this everyday. This is extremely simple to make and has very subtle flavoring. Pair it up with white rice and a spicy side dish, and you're set.
Serves 2 - 3
Ingredients
Pigeon Pea - 3/4 cup (soaked overnight in water)
salt to taste
cumin powder - 2
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tspn-1/2 tspn
ghee (optional; oil or butter is not a substitute in this case) - 1/2 tbspn
water
Method
1. Boil pigeon peas in water until mashable consistency.
2. Mash and add water until desired consistency is reached. I like mine semi-liquidy so I can enjoy it on rice.
3. To this add the turmeric, cumin powder, salt, and ghee. Mix well and bring to a boil on the stove.
4. Serve over hot white rice and that's it!
