Tunisian Tomato Soup With Chickpeas And Lentils Recipes

TUNISIAN TOMATO SOUP WITH CHICKPEAS AND LENTILS

Tunisian Tomato Soup With Chickpeas and Lentils image

A variation on a Molly Katzen recipe I found on the Internet. Though the spices are quite different, the basic ingredients -- tomatoes, lentils and chickpeas -- remind me of the popular Moroccan soup called harrira. Have not yet tried this one but as fall comes, this will certainly make an appearance in my soup pot.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

1 cup lentils, sorted & rinsed
1 cinnamon stick
7 cups water (more or less)
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 cups minced onions
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin seeds
2 teaspoons ground cumin
3 bay leaves
1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes
2 cups cooked chickpeas, drained and rinsed (canned is fine)
black pepper
cayenne pepper
currants (optional)
plain yogurt (optional)
parsley, chopped (optional)
of fresh mint, chopped (optional)

Steps:

In a large soup pot, place lentils with the cinnamon stick in 7 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove and discard the cinnamon stick and drain the lentils, reserving the liquid.
Meanwhile, heat oil in a soup pot. Add the onion, garlic, salt, turmeric, cumin seeds, ground cumin, and bay leaves. Saute over medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes or until the onions are soft. If the pot gets a bit dry moisten with some of the reserved lentil water.
Measure out the reserved lentil water and add water to reach 6 cups of liquid and return to soup pot with the spiced cooked onions. Add the canned crushed tomatoes with juice and bring to a boil. Lower heat to a simmer, partially cover and cook for another 15 minutes or so.
Stir in the chickpeas and lentils and cook for about 5 minutes to warm through. The legumes should not become mushy.
Season to taste with the two peppers and lemon juice; adjust salt.
Serve hot with some yogurt [omit for Vegan], a sprinkling of parsley or mint, and currants, if desired.
