Here is a delicious lentil soup for Shabbat - Parshat Toldot or anytime you feel like a hot bowl of good-for-you soup. It can be prepared on the stove top or in a crock pot. I prefer to saute the veggies for a few minutes before adding everything else.
Ingredients
- 1-1/4 cups lentils, rinsed shopping list
- 1/2 cup pearl barley shopping list
- 6 cups water or 3 cups water and 3 cups vegetable stock shopping list
- 1 large onion, chopped shopping list
- 2 - 3 garlic cloves, minced shopping list
- 2 celery ribs, chopped shopping list
- 2 carrots, chopped shopping list
- 1 tablespoon of either fresh or dried parsley (preferably fresh) shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon oregano shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin shopping list
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper shopping list
- 1/8 tsp. red pepper flakes or a dash of Tobasco sauce shopping list
- 1/2 teaspoon salt shopping list
How to make it
- Place all ingredients except salt into a large pot and bring to a good simmer.
- Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the lentils and barley are tender, about 1-1/2 hours.
- Add salt to taste.
- Note: Cooking time depends on the method of cooking. If you are using a crock pot then I would suggest 6 hours.
- Should make enough to serve 6 - 8
