As the days are turning colder, and the leaves are falling there is one thing I think of….. It’s soup time!!
I do love a good soup, they are often dead easy to make, filling and lovely and warming. They beat the humble sandwich for lunch any day of the week. This one in particular is one of the easiest you can make; you can rustle it up in no time and only takes a few simple ingredients that most of us will have. It’s a good way to use up those red lentils in the back of the cupboard that you never know what to do with. I think this recipe originally came from Good Food, but it’s a regular I go back to time and time again. It’s low in fat and high fibre.
Ingredients
2 tsp. cumin seeds
1 tsp. crushed chilli flakes
650g carrots, scrubbed and grated
140g red lentils
1 litre vegetable stock ( I use the knorr stock pots)
150ml milk
chopped fresh coriander,yogurt and naan bread to serve
