A delicious Turkish lentil soup made with only plant-based ingredients.

1

Evenly chop the onion, potatoes and carrots and place into a large pot. Add water/veggie stock, red lentils, rice and salt.

2

Over medium heat, bring it to a boil. Once it starts boiling, turn the heat to low, cover and cook for about 20 minutes or until the lentils and the carrots are soft and mushy.

3

With an immersion blender, blend everything until it's smooth. Or if you like chunky soup, serve as is. I like to serve mine with a bit of olive oil and chilli pepper flakes on top. Enjoy!
