TURKISH RED LENTIL SOUP WITH MINT



Turkish Red Lentil Soup with Mint image

This soup is divine and much like you will get at any authentic Turkish restaurant. It has dynamic flavors and a lovely mild heat. I make a big batch and eat it for lunch with crusty bread and salad the entire week. Optional: Serve with additional mint and lemon wedges.

Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons olive oil
½ onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup diced tomatoes, drained
5 cups chicken stock
½ cup red lentils
¼ cup fine bulgur
¼ cup rice
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried mint
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over high heat. Cook and stir the onion in the hot oil until it begins to soften, about 2 minutes. Stir the garlic into the onion and cook another 2 minutes. Add the diced tomatoes to the onion mixture; continue to cook and stir another 10 minutes.
  • Pour in the chicken stock, red lentils, bulgur, rice, tomato paste, paprika, cayenne pepper, and mint to the tomato mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer until the the lentils and rice are cooked through, about 30 minutes.
  • Pour the soup into a blender to no more than half full. Firmly hold the lid in place and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth; pour into your serving dish. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup in cooking pot.

  • Before you start cooking I suggest that you keep your red split lentils to soak for 20-30 mins. This will soften the lentils so that they cook faster. At the same time, it ensures that the lentils are soft, which in turn will help you to digest the lentils easier. You can skip that step if you are short on time and if you have an instant pot/pressure cooker.
  • Prepare all your vegetables before you start out cooking. This will help you in your cooking flow.
  • To get cooking, pour the olive oil into a shallow cooking pan and fry your onion slices soft. Then continue to add in the tomato and garlic as well as the carrot pieces.
  • Then season with paprika and cumin powder and add a tablespoon of tomato paste. Stir fry the whole content on low to medium heat.
