Dump & Simmer Lentil Soup with Bacon

It's hard to think of a more efficient and versatile dish than a hearty, rustic soup.
You can throw all your old veg in the pot along with other stuff from almost all your other basic food groups, bring it to a boil, bring it down to a simmer, walk away, forget it for 45 minutes to an hour, enjoy the delicious aromas while its simmering, and come back to a completely balanced one dish meal.
And lentils, unlike most other pulses or legumes, don't have to be soaked, either. So a hearty, rustic, lentil soup is about as easy and efficient as it gets.
Plus they're a great source of protein, fiber, and several essential minerals. Not to mention they're inexpensive.

Just bring it all to a boil, covered, on medium high heat (which should take about 15 minutes), and then simmer for another 45 minutes, covered, on low to medium low heat, then for another 10 to 15 minutes, uncovered, still on low to medium low heat.

The recipe isn't difficult or time-consuming and I prepare this whenever I'm hungry.I posted this because the crispy texture of pan-fried bacon goes very well with the soup.Lentil soup is common in India, but adding bacon was my own idea.・I recommend to thicken the soup. The consistency should be when the soup easily slips off the spoon. Adjust in Step 8 with water.・As the spices are mild, it can be enjoyed by anyone.・A healthy soup with lots of lentils and a little oil. Recipe by Plabar cookpad.japan -

This is the lightest way to make lentil soup. In the other method, you fry onions in ghee and pour them over the soup at the end, but that can cause heartburn. منال ثروت🥯🥐Translated from Cookpad Egypt -

Red Lentil Soup Red Lentil Soup
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. Enjoy!This recipe was modified from The NY Times#GlobalApron - Week 38 Lentils, Onion#Lunch #Fall #Autumn #Winter #Vegetables #Vegetarian #Vegan Chris Gan -
