This is another of my favourite soup recipes, very warming, very filling, and very moorish. Best served with some good hunks of fresh wholemeal bread.
Ingredients:
- 3 onions (corsely chopped)
- 2 carrots (corsely grated)
- a sprinkling of chilli flakes
- 500 grams red lentils
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 1.5 litres vegetable stock (2.5 pints)
Method:
- Fry the chopped onion in a little oil/butter to soften until just turning golden.
- Add the spices, the carrot, hot stock, and lentils, and stir well
- Bring to the boil, and then reduce to a simmer
- Simmer for around 10 minutes.
- Enjoy!
