A lovely soup recipe that I received from a older English country woman. Very easy to make and has a nice warm flavor. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
1 onion, diced |
2/3 cup red lentils |
1/2 cup orange juice |
1 stalk celery, chopped |
1/2 carrot, shredded |
1 bay leaf |
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme |
ground black pepper to taste |
3 cups chicken broth, divided |
Directions:
1. In a pot over medium heat, cook onions in butter until softened. Stir in lentils, orange juice, celery, carrot, bay leaf, thyme, pepper and half the chicken broth and simmer 40 minutes, until lentils are tender.
2. Puree in a blender or food processor, or using an immersion blender. Return to the pot, stir in remaining chicken broth and heat through.
