Nothing is more comforting than a hot bowl of soup! I'm not one who is much for vegetarian dishes , I'm a huge fan of meat. But this soup really hits the spot and is extremely satisfying.
It's not true vego as I used my Home made chicken stock , but you could use veggie stock or thermomix veggie stock concentrate mixed with water if you wanted it to be vegetarian.
To start soak 200g brown lentils in water for about half a hour.
Mince in thermomix bowl 3 garlic cloves speed 8 for 10 seconds.
Peel and quarter 1 brown onion & 1 red onion
Quarter 4 large Roma tomatoes
Add onions and tomato to the bowl and chop on speed 4 for 5 seconds.
Measure in 40 g extra virgin olive oil
Cook for 3 minutes on varoma temperature, reverse speed 1
chop into bite size pieces , then add to bowl
2 peeled medium carrots
1 zucchini
200 g peeled sweet potato
150 g celery
Measure and add in 100 g frozen peas
Cook for 5 minutes , varoma temperature , reverse speed 1
Drain and rinse the lentils and add to the vegetables in the bowl along with :
30 g fresh parsley
1 tablespoon dried basil
1 tablespoon turmeric
Pinch of dried chilli flakes
1 bay leaf
700g liquid chicken stock ( or any stock of your choice)
