Provided by Sharon123

Categories     Lentil

Time 6h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 lb dry lentils (1 1/4 cups)
2 medium carrots, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup mushroom, sliced
1 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup snipped parsley
4 cups water
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
2 teaspoons instant vegetable bouillon granules (or 2 cubes)
sour cream

Steps:

  • In a saucepan, saute onions, mushrooms, garlic, and celery till just slightly browned, about 10 minutes.
  • In a 3 1/2 or 4 quart crockpot, combine the lentils, carrots, onion, garlic, mushrooms, celery& parsley.
  • Stir in water, mushroom soup, and bouillon.
  • Cover; cook on low 10 to 12 hours or high 5 to 6 hours.
  • Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream.
  • 4 servings.

Tips:

  • Choose the right lentils: Brown or green lentils hold their shape well and won't disintegrate in the soup. Red lentils cook quickly and break down, creating a thicker soup.
  • Rinse the lentils: This removes any dirt or debris and helps prevent the soup from becoming cloudy.
  • Soak the lentils (optional): Soaking the lentils for 30 minutes to overnight reduces cooking time and helps them cook more evenly.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: This adds flavor, texture, and nutrients to the soup. Common vegetables used in lentil soup include carrots, celery, onions, garlic, and mushrooms.
  • Add some herbs and spices: Common herbs and spices used in lentil soup include cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, and bay leaves.
  • Don't overcook the lentils: Lentils should be tender but still hold their shape. Overcooking can make them mushy.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Common toppings for lentil soup include croutons, chopped fresh herbs, a dollop of yogurt, or a drizzle of olive oil.
