I'm a huge soup fan during the colder months. Let's face it, I'm a huge soup fan no matter the time of the year but, especially during those months. This Indian Dal Soup was a hit in the Instant Ace Blender and I couldn't wait to share the recipe with you.
What Makes This Soup The Best Lentil Soup Ever
I don't know about you but, I'm in love with the Instant Pot Blender simply because it makes some of my favorite soups so much easier and quicker to throw together. Watch my review video if you're curious about it.
Indian Dal Soup isn't one of those thick, chunky types of soup.
For example, many of us love chicken noodle soup because it has plenty of broth but also has nice thick chunks of chicken with soft noodles to go along with it.
However, this soup recipe is just one of those sipping soups that would go great with crackers or bread, if desired.
What Is Dal Soup Made Of?
Indian Dal Soup is rich in flavor and is the perfect comfort soup. It's pretty easy to make especially with the Instant Pot Blender at your side.
However, this soup may call for an ingredient or two that you're unfamiliar with. Before you start to skip those ingredients or give up on the recipe altogether, let me explain to help a bit.
This Indian Dal Soup recipe calls for split yellow moong dal.
Of course, you can use split red lentils in its place, however, if you want to, go ahead and use the split yellow moong dal.
Split yellow moong dal is made from a mung bean which is a lentil-like legume. It's not super hard to find in stores and it has a delicious flavor that's similar to that of lentils.
How To Make Indian Dal Soup
Three steps. This is an incredibly simple and delicious pour and cook (blend) recipe.
- Place all of the ingredients in the Instant Pot Blender.
- Press the Soup 1 button.
- When the soup is finished cooking, garnish with cilantro or parsley depending on your preference.

Hi! Thanks for the recipe! Do I add the 1/4 cup cilantro to the blender, or use it for garnish? Thank you for your help!
