Ingredients
  • 8 ounces/ 1 c red lentils, rinsed and
  • drained
  • 2 onions, finely chopped
  • 2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 carrot, finely chopped
  • 2 T olive oil
  • 2 bay leaves
  • Generous pinch of dried marjoram or oregano
  • 6¼ c vegetable stock
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • Salt and ground black pepper
  • Celery leaves, to garnish (optional)
  • Crusty bread rolls, to serve
Instructions
  1. Put all the ingredients except for the vinegar, seasoning and garnish in a large, heavy pan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then lower the heat and simmer for 1½ hour, stirring the soup occasionally to prevent the lentils from sticking to the bottom.
  2. Remove the bay leaves and add the red wine vinegar, with salt and pepper to taste. If the soup is too thick, thin it with a little extra vegetable stock or water. Serve the soup in heated bowls, garnish with celery leaves. Serve with warmed crusty rolls. From the Ultimate Soup Bible
