Coat the bottom of a large pot with the oil and place it over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the onion and carrots. Sweat the vegetables for about 5 minutes, until they begin to soften.
Stir in the garlic, ginger, curry powder, garam masala, cumin, and cayenne pepper if using. Sauté the mixture for about 1 minute, stirring constantly, until it becomes very fragrant.
Stir in the lentils, broth and potato. Raise the heat and bring the liquid to a boil.
Lower the heat and allow the soup to simmer until the lentils have softened quite a bit but are not yet fully cooked, about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Stir in the tomatoes and coconut milk. Let the soup continue simmering for about 10 minutes, until the lentils and potato are soft.
Remove the pot from heat and season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
Ladle into bowls and serve.
