The perfect simple brown lentil soup recipe with a picture and simple step-by-step instructions.
lentil soup
- 200 g Brown lentils
- 1 disc Kasseler finely diced
- 1 piece Freshly chopped spring onions
- 1 piece Diced onion
- 1 piece Garlic clove chopped
- 2 piece Freshly peeled and diced potatoes
- 1,5 liter Vegetable broth own production see under preparation
- 1 tbsp Tomato paste
- 1 some Flour
- 1 pinch Sea salt from the mill
- 1 pinch Black pepper from the mill
- 1 pinch Cayenne powder
- Soak the lentils in water for about 4-5 hours.
- Lightly toast the onion and garlic. Now add the vegetables, then roast the tomato paste a little and deglaze everything with the broth.
- Add the soaked lentils (with the soaking water). Bring everything to the boil while stirring and let simmer for another 20 minutes. Stir every now and then.
- Stir the flour into cold water and then fold into the soup. Add the diced meat and simmer everything together for a few more minutes. Season to taste with the spices.
- Serve the soup in preheated bowls.
- I really like brown lentils. Often make this soup in variations. Also with an insert of meatballs, or with salsicciaballs or sausage meat.
- Now that I only use homemade vegetable broth for my dishes (if available), I made sure of supplies again today. The vegetables are variable (depending on the season) For 5 l of broth: For example: 1 celery root with greens, 1 parsley root, 1 vegetable onion, 2 cloves of garlic, 200 g green beans, 1.5 kohlrabi, 500 g white cabbage, 1 cauliflower, 300 gr carrots. 3 leeks, 5 tbsp butter, 5 l water, 1 tbsp salt Quarter the leek and cabbage, cut the green onion and celery into large pieces, wash and clean the vegetables. Melt the butter over a low flame and steam everything briefly. Add cold water to the vegetables. Bring to the boil and then simmer for 40 minutes. Salt at the end. Not! Stir in it! Sift through and you have a class of vegetable broth. If you want a stock, let the broth continue to cook over a low flame so that it thickens a little.
