Curry Lentil Potato Soup

 When Pip and I cook, we don't measure spices much.  It's a great soup, but you'll have to wing it a bit.  As always, we'll post pictures next time we make it. 

Ingredients:
1 ½ onions, chopped
¾ cup lentils
cloves of garlic, a handful, chopped
3 celery sticks. chopped
4 small carrots (or 8-12 babies), shredded
6 small potatoes, chopped in small chunks
½ head cauliflower, chopped – same size at potatoes
Curry powder, several teaspoons?
Dried parsley, probably just one teaspoon
Cumin, 1-2 teaspoons
2 bay leaves

Directions:
Saute onions and garlic until fragrant
Add rinsed lentils, celery, carrots, bay leaves, and six cups of water; simmer for 10 minutes
Then add potatoes, cumin, and curry; simmer for 10 minutes
Finally, add cauliflower and parsley; simmer for 10 minutes
Salt and pepper to taste
