Ingredients
3 cups of red lentils
1 large onion
5 medium carrots
5 medium potatoes
1 large sweet potato
Fresh ginger root , 1 inch long
4 medium garlic cloves
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon of turmeric
Salt and cayenne pepper, to taste

Process
Boil 3 liters of filtered water in an 8-liter pot.
Add the lentils.

Add the ginger (peeled, but not cut) and 3 cloves of garlic.
Add turmeric, curry powder, and salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
Cook the vegetables, ginger and garlic, until ready, for about 30 minutes. Use a ladle to empty them into a large dish, and let them cool for about 20 minutes (while the lentils continue to simmer).
