Yield 6 cups, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups vegetable broth (or stock)
6 ounces tomato paste
1 cup red lentil
1/4 cup brown lentils
1 teaspoon salt
3 dashes black pepper
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1/2 teaspoon garam masala
1/2 teaspoon coriander
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon marjoram
1/2 tablespoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, mix the vegetable broth and tomato paste together and bring to a low boil.
  • Add the salt, pepper, and lentils and simmer on low heat for 25-30 minutes or until most of the lentils have dissolved.
  • Add the lemon juice and spices, and stir well.
  • Add some water if the soup needs thinning (it most likely does, tomato paste gets thick).
  • Serve and enjoy.
