Ingredients

  • 1 cup Lentils
  • 1 large Onion
  • 1 large Carrots
  • 1 tbs Tomato Puree
  • 2 tsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Mint
  • 1/2 tsp Thyme
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
  • 4 cups Vegetable Stock
  • 1 cup Water
  • Pinch Sea Salt

Instructions

1
Pick through your lentils for any foreign debris, rinse them 2 or 3 times, filter, and set aside.
2
Fair warning, this will probably turn your lentils into a solid block that you’ll have to break up later In a large pot over medium-high burning up, sauté the olive coat and the shallot with a pinch of table salt for about 3 moments, then introduce the carrots and oven-cook for another 3 moments.
3
introduce the tomato paste and agitate it around for around 1 minute.
4
Now introduce the cumin, paprika, mint, thyme, black pepper, and red pepper as quickly as you can and agitate for 10 seconds to bloom the spices.
5
Congratulate yourself on how delightful your house now smells.
6
Immediately introduce the lentils, liquid, broth, and table salt.
7
Bring the broth to a (subtle) heat to boiling point.
8
After it has come to a heat to boiling point, reduce burning up to medium-low, put a lid on the pot halfway, and oven-cook for 15-20 moments or until the lentils have fallen apart and the carrots are completely cooked.
9
After the broth has cooked and the lentils are yielding, liquidize the broth either in a blender or simply use a hand blender to reach the consistency you desire.
10
umami profile for seasoning and introduce more table salt if necessary.
11
dish up with crushed-up crackers, torn up bread, or something else to introduce some extra thickness.
12
You could also use a classic thickener (like cornstarch or dusting seasoning), but I prefer to introduce crackers for some texture and saltiness.
13
Makes great leftovers, stays good in the fridge for about a week.
