LENTIL TOMATO SOUP



Lentil Tomato Soup image

I'm a firm believer in eating foods that symbolize good luck and expanding fortune at the beginning of the year. Usually I stick with my black-eyed peas salad. But I've always been curious about how people in other countries usher in the New Year. Lentils and raisins are present on Italian tables because they resemble coins and swell when cooked. They're usually accompanied by pork, a symbol of prosperity and abundance. This is an easy, robust vegetarian soup that tastes almost meaty. The rosemary in the bouquet garni contributes a savory, earthy flavor.

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup lentils, washed and picked over
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 carrot, diced
1 stalk of celery, diced
Salt to taste
1 14-ounce can chopped tomatoes, with juice
5 cups water
A bouquet garni made with 2 sprigs rosemary and 1 bay leaf
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Grated Parmesan or Gruyère for serving
1 to 2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a heavy soup pot or Dutch oven, and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, carrot and celery, and a generous pinch of salt, and continue to cook for another 5 minutes until tender. Add the tomatoes and bouquet garni, and cook, stirring often, until the tomatoes have cooked down somewhat and smell fragrant, about 10 minutes. Add the lentils, water and salt to taste. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer gently one hour. Taste and adjust seasonings. Remove the bouquet garni, and stir in the parsley. Serve, garnishing each bowl with Parmesan or Gruyère.

Tips:

  • If you don't have fresh tomatoes, you can use canned diced tomatoes. Just be sure to drain them well before adding them to the soup.
  • To make the soup more flavorful, you can add a teaspoon of vegetable bouillon or a beef bouillon cube.
  • If you like a spicy soup, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a few dashes of hot sauce.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of plain yogurt, a sprinkling of chopped fresh cilantro, and a wedge of lime. These garnishes will add a pop of flavor and color to the soup.

Conclusion:

This lentil and tomato soup is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The soup is also a great way to use up leftover lentils. So next time you have some lentils on hand, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
