Question:

Soup? anyone know a good and easy recipe and could i add lentils?


Answers:

I don't use a recipe. I just make chicken stock (or buy good quality chicken broth) and add herbs, spices, chicken (or not) and vegetables (and sometimes tomato puree) to taste and simmer slowly. And yes, I often add lentils. They add protein, thicken the broth, and cook much more quickly than dried beans. You will need to make sure to add more broth with the lentils, or add precooked lentils.

To make a lentil soup, I cook the lentils in chicken or vegetable stock until soft, adding fresh garlic, chopped onion, carrots and celery. Add salt, pepper and curry powder to taste. Puree about 1/3 to 1/2 of the cooked mixture and readd to the the soup.
