Directions
Split Pea and Sweet Potato Soup,Cardamom and garam masala add subtle spice to split peas and sweet potatoes. Directions for making on the stove and for the slow cooker. I like to add a little curry powder to spice it up even more! Adapted from Whole Foods.,This soup is a gift from God! This is why I cook. I love this soup. My local grocer didn’t carry yellow lentils, so used green. Made as directed and wouldn’t change a thing. Thanks, Sharon123! My kindred spirit! Made for Veggie Recipe Swap #42.
