Lentil Soup
1lb onions, finely chopped
1lb carrots, grated
1lb split red lentils
2 litres good quality vegetable stock (you may need more depending on how thick or thin you prefer your soup - you can always add more during cooking)
one can Heinz tomato soup or Campbell's condensed tomato soup
1oz butter
Gently fry the onions in the butter for a few minutes until they begin to soften. Add the carrots, lentils and stock. Simmer, covered and stirring occasionally until the vegetables are soft and the lentils cooked. Turn off heat. Leave to cool for a few minutes. Add the can of tomato soup, mix in well.
Serve with warm bread. Yummy.
This soup sounds really boring, but it is really tasty, and filling, and gets better after a couple of days in the fridge.
My mother gave me the recipe and despite the oddness of adding a can of soup, it adds a lot of colour and flavour. Try it!
