Step by step

Method

  1. 01

    Try and then enter into your diet a simple, very useful, aromatic and warming lentil-carrot soup. The recipe is simple, but I will give 2 tips from eminent chefs: about garlic from Hector Jimenez and about onions from Julia Vysotskaya.

  2. 02

    Soup is made from a very simple set of products and turns out to be rich in taste and pleasant in color.

  3. 03

    I suggest you peel the garlic using the method I saw on a TV show with Hector Jimenez. Put the garlic cook in the bowl.

  4. 04

    Cover the second bowl and shake vigorously for a few seconds.

  5. 05

    Ready! i.e., in the bowl exfoliated cloves of garlic.

  6. 06

    To finely cut the onion and it did not go in different directions, use the advice from Julia Vysotskaya and my photo: cut half the cooking along and across, but without reaching the root with a knife.

    Heat the onions in a pan along with vegetable oil and sweat it.

    Put it out on medium fire.

  11. 11

    Wash the lentils, pour water or broth and bring to a boil.

  12. 12

    In boiled lentils throw vegetables, add fragrant herbs and peppers. I added Italian herbs with paprika and pink pepper.

  13. 13

    After 10 minutes of cooking on medium heat, the soup readiness is number 1, but if you want a more pure lentil soup, then cook for another 10-15 minutes, red and yellow lentils are well boiled.
