Graeme’s Lentil Soup
Ingredients:
2 cups lentils
1 small carrot, grated
1 medium onion, grated
Water
Salt to taste
Directions:
Rinse lentils in a colander and put into a large soup pot.
Add one small grated carrot, and one medium grated onion.
Add about 3 to 4 times more water than lentils.
Add desired amount of salt.
Bring to a boil and simmer (on the lowest possible setting)
for 3 to 4 hours, making sure you stir a LOT.
If you do not stir enough, you will end up with burned soup
on the bottom of the soup pot.
The soup is done when it has reduced significantly, and the
fragrance in the house will not allow you to wait another minute before you eat
some of the soup!
Enjoy!
I looked at the Nutrition Info for this soup and I can't imagine the sodium content of 4660mg is correct.
ReplyDeleteoh good grief! Thank you! That is because instead of typing 1/2 t salt (people can always log with any additional salt they use) - I typed 12 t of salt!!!! Many Many thank yous!
