Time 1h

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, diced
3 shallots, diced
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 carrot, roughly chopped
2 stalks celery, roughly chopped
2 cups lentils
8 cups chicken stock
1 ham hock (optional)
2 red bell peppers, roasted and pureed
1 jalapeno pepper, roasted and pureed
1 pinch curry powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper (or to taste, can use chile sauce, I would use much less)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot over high temperature, heat the olive oil until very hot. Add the onion, shallots, and garlic and saute until they begin to give off their aroma, 2-3 minutes. Add the carrots, celery and lentils and mix to coat the lentils with olive oil. Add the stock and optional ham hock and simmer until the lentils are tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Add the pureed red and jalapeno peppers to the soup. Add the curry, cumin, and cayenne. Season with salt and pepper. If you have added the ham hock, remove it and discard or pull the meat from the bone, chop and addit it to the soup. Bring the soup just to a boil and serve immediately.

This soup is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I probably won't make it again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out too salty. I had to add a lot of water to dilute it.

This soup is bland and flavorless.

Delicious and easy to make! I used canned lentils to save time and it still turned out great. The roasted red peppers really make the dish.

This soup is so flavorful and comforting! The roasted red peppers give it a lovely smoky flavor and the lentils add a nice texture. I added a bit of extra chili flakes for some heat and it was perfect. Definitely a soup I'll be making again and again
