[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My go-to red lentil soup: Start a pan with garlic and carrots with a little olive oil Before the garlic starts to brown add tomato paste, water (3x the amount of lentils), salt, pepper, and thyme. (Lentils and black pepper go really well so I put more than seems reasonable.) Add lentils, bring to a slow boil then cook on low, at least 30 minutes I add a slice of butter at the end, which makes up for the fact I don't use stock. Depending on what I have, I include sweet potatoes and/or bitter greens[/quote] I use the same base recipe. I use chicken or vegetable stock instead of water (no butter). Salt and Pepper. Rather than thyme, I add a tsp. of cumin, dash of chili powder, and a TBSP of cilantro (parsley is good if you don't like cilantro). Then garnish with the juice of half a lemon when it is done cooking. I frequently add onions to the base as well. You really can't wrong with some variant of this base recipe.[/quote]
