Lentilsoup with a bite
We gave this lentil soup quite a bite by adding 2 chilli peppers. This is of course optional.
Porties: litres
Ingrediënten
- 300 g raw brown lentils
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 2 Chili peppers
- 1 big red onion
- 1 red bellpepper
- 1 leek
- 2 medium carrots
- 1,5 litr vegetable broth
- olive oil, pepper, salt
Instructies
- Wash and rinse the lentils several times in cold water.
- Fry the chopped onion in a dash of olive oil. After a few minutes, add the finely chopped garlic.
- Chop the chilli peppers. Don't like spicy? Then remove the seeds. Add the chillies to the onion-garlic mixture and stir well.
- Now add the lentils and a litre of the vegetable stock. Bring to the boil and simmer gently for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut the peppers, leeks and carrots into small pieces. It is a hearty soup so there is no need to chop it very finely.
- Add the chopped vegetables to the lentil soup and continue cooking until all vegetables are tender. If the soup becomes too thick, add some more vegetable stock.
- Season to taste with salt and pepper.
