Sauté the beef in a pot.

Once the beef liquid evaporates, add the chopped onion, then pour in boiling water.

Add the rinsed lentils and spices.

Cook over high heat for about 20 minutes.

Then reduce the heat and simmer until the soup thickens.

Once cooked, serve in a bowl, squeeze lemon juice on top, and garnish with fried bread pieces.

Note: You can make this soup without meat. Once cooked, you can blend it with an immersion blender for a smoother texture.
