Tried this recipe?Let us know how it was!
Mine wasn’t running like a soup really, but tasted perfect! I’ve served with a spoon of Greek yogurt in each plate and that added bit of freshness, hubby and 4 kids all very happy with it.
This soup is delicious. I’ve cooked a batch for my work lunches. The depth of flavour in this is incredible.
At the end of cooking I whizzed it up with the stick blender and found it to be quite thick, so I added a cup of vegetable stock and it was perfect.
Thank you for sharing.
This is a beautiful recipe. I’ve never had lentils and I thoroughly enjoyed this!!
