I sort of skip that last step about reheating... I'm usually way too hungry at that point! Just mash the lentils up with the ladle a bit.

Start heating the water to boil, add in everything else. Boil vigorously for 20 minutes. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until the split peas are tender, at least another 40 minutes, and for as long as you like. Mash up, press through sieve, or blend. Reheat just to boiling point.
