Lentil soup
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lentil soup is a vegetarian soup made with lentils, although it is often traditionally made using ham stock.
Wikibooks Cookbook has more about this subject:
The lentils are boiled with vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, zuchinni and onion. Then the whole mixture is pureed in a blender. Fried minced garlic and cumin are important additions to bring out the flavour of this soup. It is served hot, usually with a squirt of lemon juice and croutons. It is a favourite dish in Egypt.
