Heat the oil in a medium-sized pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (approx. 175°C / 350°F). Add the finely chopped onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Do not let it brown.

Add the minced garlic to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

Stir in the ground turmeric and cook for about 30 seconds to a minute, until fragrant. This blooming process enhances its flavor and color.

Continue to simmer for 40-45 minutes, or until the split peas are very tender, have broken down significantly, and the stew has thickened to your desired consistency. If it becomes too thick, add a little more hot water. If it's too thin, simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes.
