This warming, spiced soup is naturally plant-based from the ground up, no complicated workarounds needed. Onion, garlic, and ginger get bloomed in olive oil before turmeric, cumin, coriander, and a hit of cayenne turn the whole pot golden and fragrant. Red lentils simmer down into a thick, porridge-like base, enriched with full-fat coconut milk and diced tomatoes for a creamy, tangy depth that doesn't need anything else added to feel indulgent. A big handful of baby spinach gets stirred in at the end for color and freshness, and a squeeze of lemon juice brightens the whole bowl right before serving. Finish with cilantro and extra lemon wedges for a bowl that's cozy, nourishing, and easy to make again and again on a vegan menu.

Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute — watch closely so the garlic does not brown.
