Ingredients

3 Tablespoons Olive Oil

1 cup Red Lentils, rinsed and set aside to drain

1 bunch Collard Greens, washed, central veins removed and thinly sliced

1 medium onion, chopped

1 1/2 teaspoons salt

6 cups water

1 Tablespoon cumin

1 teaspoon cinnamon

2 Tablespoons minced garlic

lemon juice to taste

Directions

Heat 1 tablespoon of the Olive oil in a heavy pan. Add the salt and the onion; cook and stir over medium heat until the onion is transparent, about 4 minutes.

Stir in the drained lentils. Cook for another minute.

Pour in the water. Bring to a Boil then reduce the temperature to medium/low and simmer covered for about 15 minutes or until the lentils are tender.

While the lentils are simmering, prepare the Collards.

Add to a skillet with the remaining Olive Oil and cook over medium heat until wilted. About 10 minutes.

When the lentils are tender add the Collards and season with the Cumin, Cinnamon and Minced Garlic. Simmer about another 10 minutes.

Ladle into bowls and add lemon juice to taste.

This sounds very good. We make lentil soup often in the winter. With a few difference, our family's recipe is similar to yours. Nice post... Jim
