Directions:

  1. Place split peas in a medium pot, and add water.
  2. Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, 30 minutes. There will still be some liquid in the pot.
  3. In another large heavy pot, sweat the onion in about 1/4 cup water until very translucent.
  4. Add garlic, ginger and tomato paste and saute two minutes.
  5. Stir in spices, salt, pepper and remaining water and cook 5 minutes longer, stirring.
  6. Add the cooked split peas and enough of the cooking liquid to form a thick, gravy-like sauce.
  7. Cook until everything is well combined and hot. Adjust seasoning to taste.
  8. Serve over brown rice, couscous or with naan, injera or pita, if desired.
