Utensils Used
| 1. Add vegetable stock,red lentils, salt, pepper, onions and garlic to a pot and bring to the boil. | 2. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer and cover. | 3. This is where I start to chop up vegetables and add as each vegetable is prepared. | 4. I usually add in this order carrot, green beans, leek, celery, capsicum, spinach, tomato then mushrooms. | 5. Add tomato paste. | 6. Keep pot covered and stir every 10- 20 minutes until lentils have broken down, usually 60 to 90 minutes. | 7. If the soup dries out add water. | 8. Add parsley, oregano and basil, and then simmer for another 10 minutes. | 9. I usually then turn off stove, leave it covered until cooled then refrigerate overnight. | 10. It is worth this process, however it can obviously be eaten straight away. | 11. Before serving, add shaved Parmesan as a garnish and enjoy with a crispy warm bread roll, butter and nice glass of red. | 12. Hope you enjoy this as much as we all do! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
