How to Cook Wendy's Lentil Soup
- Peel and finely chop the onion, the carrot and the celery. Peel and deseed the tomatoes and chop into small pieces.
- Place the olive oil into a large 6 litre Dutch oven or flame-proof casserole dish and set over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion, carrot, celery and salt and sweat for about 6-7 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the lentils, tomatoes, broth, coriander, cumin and grains of paradise and stir to combine.
- Increase the heat to high, bring to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook at a low simmer for about 35-40 minutes until the lentils are tender. Serve hot.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
If you prefer you soup as a purée, remove the finished soup from the heat and, using a stick blender, purée to your preferred consistency and serve immediately.
