Fiery Lentil Dhal and Rice

In a medium-sized pot, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook until onions begin to stick to the pot, then add wine and continue cooking until onions are translucent. Stirring frequently, add the broth, lentils, peppers, and spices. Bring to a low boil, then turn down the heat to low, cover and let the soup simmer for about 20 minutes, or until lentils are very tender. Stir in the tomato paste until well combined. Cook until the soup is desired consistency, adding more water if necessary. Serve over prepared rice.
