Number Of Ingredients 13

1 packet RawSpiceBar's Egyptian Spices
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 carrots, chopped
1/2 cup celery, chopped
1 cup tomatoes, chopped
1 pound lentils
2 quarts vegetable or chicken stock
2 teaspoon salt
2 loaves whole-wheat pita bread (For croutons)
1 olive oil (For croutons)
1 pinch salt (For croutons)

Steps:

  • In a large pot over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add the onions, garlic, carrots, salt and celery. Cook, stirring until onions are translucent, about 7 min.
  • Add the lentils, tomatoes & RawSpiceBar's Egyptian Spices. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add the stock, bring to the boil then turn down the heat to low and simmer for 35-45 min, until vegetables are very soft.
  • While the soup is simmering, make the croutons. Preheat oven to 200C. Cut or tear pita bread into bite-sized pieces. Toss with a generous drizzle of olive oil and sprinkle with a little salt then spread on a baking sheet in a single layer. Place in oven for about 10-12 minutes, until golden and crispy.
  • Puree the soup with a blender in batches, until smooth. Adjust seasoning and serve with croutons and a sprinkle of dukkah if you like. Enjoy!

I'm not a big fan of lentils, but this soup changed my mind! The spices really made all the difference. I'll definitely be making this again.
