I didn't like lentils of any kind, until I learned how to make this soup that is delicious and by far my family's favourite.

3 servings

2 tbspextra virgin olive oil
1/2 cupred lentils
1 clovegarlic
The juice of half a lemon

Cooking Instructions

25 min

1

In a sauce pan put the oil and the clove of garlic in medium heat.
2

Meanwhile, rinse the lentils well until the water comes out clean.
3

Add the lentils at the saucepan and also the lemon juice until it evaporates completely. Then add the tomato sauce and mix.
4

Next, add the 2 cups of water and bring to boil. Once it starts boiling, let it simmer for 15 to 20 minutes (it should look like in the second pic).

Blend the soup with a hand blender or with any other blender you have until it has a creamy consistency.

This is the first time I made this soup, and after one taste, I knew I had to share the recipe! Even my six-year-old liked it! 🤩I like my lentil soup thick and hearty, so the consistency I aim for is like a thin hummus. If you like a more watery soup, add more chicken broth or water. As with all soups, there is a lot of room for modification. If you like spice, chili powder, ginger, or cayenne pepper will amp it up nicely. If you want to make it vegan, substitute the chicken broth with vegetable broth. However, this version as written is perfectly delicious.

I love lentils especially the red ones cause they cook so quickly and have a great taste. And they are a great source of vitamin Bs and fiber.

During Ramadan, whether it happens to be summer or winter, this yellow lentil soup always makes an appearance. So hearty and satisfying, it makes the perfect starter after a long day of fasting. Lentil soups are a staple in the Middle-East and this one is no exception. #soupcontest
