Steps:

• Warm the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season with salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and shrunken, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger, and cook, stirring, until fragrant and softened, about 2 minutes. Add the mustard seeds, turmeric, curry powder, cayenne and cumin seeds, and cook, stirring constantly, until the mustard seeds pop and sizzle, about 90 seconds. Add the carrot, celery and apple, and cook, stirring, until just starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, then the flour, and cook, stirring well, to uniformly coat all the ingredients, about 2 minutes.
• Add the chicken, masoor dal and chicken broth. Season lightly with salt. Bring to a boil, stirring to scrape up any browned bits sticking to the bottom of the pot. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer.
• Cover the pot and cook for 10 minutes, then uncover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes more, until the chicken and carrots are tender, the soup is creamy, and the flavors have blended.
• Stir in the coconut milk and squeeze in the lime juice. Serve in bowls topped with a dusting of cayenne, if desired.

Steps:

• Rub chicken breasts with chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt. Place in a baking dish and let rest for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the centers and juices run clear, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and coarsely shred with 2 forks; set aside.
• Pour coconut oil into a large pot and heat over medium heat. Add carrots, apple, onion, and celery. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes, then add in garlic and ginger. Cook 1 minute more.
• Pour in 4 cups chicken stock, coconut milk, lentils, both curry powders, cumin, thyme, mustard, cinnamon, oregano, coriander, turmeric, nutmeg, cayenne, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 30 minutes.
• Fish out and discard the bay leaf. Use an immersion blender to blend into a smooth sauce. Add tomato paste and chicken; cook for another 20 minutes. If it appears too thick, add a little more stock, but the soup is pretty thick. Season with remaining 1 teaspoon salt.
• Spoon cooked rice into bowls and ladle soup over top to serve.
