9
cyellow split peas, soaked for hours1⁄2
tspcumin seed3
sprigs cilantro, chopped rough1
galgreen onion, chopped rough1⁄2
tspturmeric1⁄2
fresh chopped chili pepper, as much as you can standsalt
Directions
Step 1
Add half the split peas into a blender (or food processor) with the cumin seed (and any other ingredients you’d prefer pulverized). Pulse into a fine consistency, stopping often to scrape down the blender bowl. (Note: I used a blender, but due to the thick consistency of this mixture, I’m thinking a food processor would be easier if you have one).
Step 2
Now the fun part. Add the remaining split peas along with the green onion, cilantro, chili pepper, turmeric, and salt. Pulse until just combined and still a bit chunky. Scrape down the sides as needed.
