Even though it is technically summer here in England, we have dark and cloudy days that call for a soup. I have recently discovered this simple lentil dish that the longer you cook the better it gets. And of course lentils are awesome for your fiber intake and I am sure other good shit too.
Here I used a shallot in addition to my regular onion, because I only had one onion |
Saute in olive oil of course |
I had some green chili on hand so I threw these in too, but if you have jalapeno or something else try this too |
After you cook down your veg add a tin of diced tomatoes and broth along with the lentils and bring to a boil |
You then put the pot on simmer and can leave it there for like six hours, but rule of thumb to is cook for at least two |
My end result is more like a stew, so if you are after a proper soup add more broth...simple! But simple is always best! |
