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.

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.

Not everything is right for freezing. Some foods, however, just beg to go into the freezer waiting for that moment when you need them most!

Chicken and Ham Soup is one of my favourites and makes use of a chicken carcass (and any bits of meat still left), so great for economy too!

Wendy's Lentil Soup is so named after I cat-sat for some friends of mine while they were away on holiday and I spent a few days making lentil recipes!

Chestnut Soup with Migas is a posh way of saying Chestnut Soup with Crunchy Bread Crumbs! I love chestnuts - equally as good in summer as in winter.
