German Lentil Soup I serve this during the holidays

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. I work with Donna and joined the group.

Was reading the posts. Very impressed. I'm not a full vegetarian but I try to

make sure I cook about 4 to 5 vegetarian meals a week.

Always pack a vegetarian lunch. Working my way there but it's hard. I was

born in Rostock, Germany and raised in Calif, since age 10. I do travel there

every 2 years to visit relatives. My family does not

support vegetarianism and I can't even bring the subject up.

 

German Lentil Soup

 

1 or 1 1/3 cups green (you can use brown) lentils

6 cups of water

(use 3 bouillon cubes with water or use 6 cups vegetable broth)

1 onion diced

3 large potatoes diced

2 tablespoons of butter or margarine

1 tablespoon flour

1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

salt and pepper to taste

Optional - vegetarian brats cut in rounds (I use Yves Brand)

 

Place water & bouillon or broth and lentil in soup pot,

add half the diced onion. Bring to a boil and simmer for just over

one hour.

Add potatoes and cook until tender about 1/2 hour.

In a small pan, melt the butter and saute the remaining onions until

brown and add the flour, stir until well mixed.

Add this mixture to the soup and stir to combine.

Add vinegar and season with salt and pepper.

Add the brat rounds and heat through for about 5 mins.

This soup is received well with a nice day old crusty bread.
