Lentil Soup Creole recipe post

[Guest guest]

I made this last night from the world famous " Vegetarian Epicure " cookbook.

Very tasty too. Lentils are so versatile.

 

" Lentil Soup Creole "

 

1 cup lentils

2 qt. boiling water

11/2 tsp. salt

1 onion chopped

1 stalk celery chopped

1 small green pepper chopped

1 sweet red pepper chopped

3 Tblspns. butter or canola oil

1/2 tsp. yeast flakes

1 tsp. vegetable broth powder

1 tsp. brown sugar

1 bay leaf

4-5 Tblspns. catsup or tomato puree

2 Tblspns. flour

dash black pepper

 

Douse the lentils with boiling water, add salt and let them stand, covered,

about one hour (you can salt them when done cooking instead if you like).

Melt butter or place oil in sauce pan, add yeast flakes and vegetable broth

powder. Add chopped vegetables, brown sugar, and a bay leaf, and saute for a

few minutes before adding it all to the lentils. (I removed the bay leaf after I

sauteed).

Cook over a very low flame for about 1 to 11/2 hrs. Mix together the flour and

catsup (or tomato puree). Add a little of the hot soup this, stirring well,

then return it all to the pot. grind in some black pepper, heat through and

serve.

6-8 servings.
