It's been raining for days on end, and even the offer of going out to lunch didn't appeal today. I just wanted to stay inside and eat soup. There was no tomato soup in the cupboard, so I had to make something, which wasn't my preferred option after a morning of baking.
This recipe is based on one in the Every Day Cookbook.
Ingredients
2 tins chopped tomatoes
100g red lentils
1 onion
small knob of ginger
1 1/2 tablespoons of Moroccan spice
cup of water
1 tin of coconut milk
1 tsp of chicken stock powder
Chop onion and ginger for 3 seconds on speed 7. Cook for 3 minutes on varoma at speed 2. Add Moroccan spice and cook for 1 minute.
Add tomatoes, lentils, water, chicken stock, coconut milk and cook for 15 minutes at 90 degrees, speed 3.
I gave it a brief blitz at the end, not enough to make it smooth, I just wanted to break down the tomato chunks. I served it with a spoon of sour cream, and the recipe says to add fresh coriander, which would be nice, but I didn't have any.
This was perfect for a rainy day lunch, serves 4. I forgot to take a picture until I was half way through eating it, so forgive the smeary bowl.
