More naturally gluten-free goodness and vegan too. Especially for Dave2 since he loves lentils so very much. This soup freezes well.
I am not a fan of onions but for onion lovers, sweat a sliced onion in vegetable oil and the spices and add them to the soup together.
1 cup red lentils
2 cans chopped tomato
1 litre vegetable stock or water
generous handful green beans, sliced
two carrots, sliced
1 heaping tsp cumin
1 heaping tsp paprika
1 heaping tsp turmeric
hot chilli powder to taste
salt to taste
lemon juice to taste
Combine red lentils, tinned tomato, water or stock and spices in your slow cooker. Cook on low for up to 8 hours. Roughly an hour before serving throw in the chopped vegetables.
Salt to taste and drizzle with lemon juice to serve.
