Lentil Soup

My daughters make lentil soup frequently and I do, too. It turns out that we each have a different recipe. This one is a good easy basic soup. I have to admit I usually don’t use a recipe for lentil soup. I add whatever I have available to it. If I don’t have any celery, carrots or onions, I use what I have available. Most of the time I use canned chopped tomatoes and chicken broth but if there are fresh tomatoes available, I am happy to use them.

A Variation of Pamela’s Basic Lentil Soup

1/2 package of dried lentils rinsed

1/2 cup chopped onion

1/2 cup chopped celery

1/4 cup chopped carrots

3 Tbsp. Parsley (optional)

1 clove minced garlic

2 1/2 tsp. Salt

1/2 tsp. dried oregano

1 bay leaf

1 can chopped tomatoes

1 cup of chicken broth

2 Tbsp. wine vinegar

Rinse lentils, drain and place in soup kettle, add 4 cups of water and remaining ingredients, except tomatoes and vinegar. Cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours. Add tomatoes (break up any large pieces) and vinegar. Simmer covered 30 minutes longer. Season to taste. Makes 4 or 5 servings. Sprinkle with Cheddar or Parmesan cheese as a garnish.

I often add chicken sausage to the soup to make a one dish meal. Another variation is to add baby spinach a few minutes before serving.

My daughter Celia Fonta who is my source forWhat is the Art of Flamenco adds chorizo that she sautes in oil with the chopped onion.
