Another celebrity recipe. I do not know if you should chop up the tomatoes or not, but this sounds great. This would be vegan if you don't use the butter. Ingredients:
1/2 lb split peas |
1/4 lb orange lentils |
1 1/2 large onions, quartered |
4 stalks celery, including leaves, rinsed & chopped |
2 tomatoes, peeled |
2 leeks, white part only, cut into 1-inch chunks |
5 cups water (about) |
1/4 lb butter or 1/4 lb soy margarine |
crushed black peppercorns |
sea salt |
Directions:
1. Place split peas, lentils, onions, celery, tomatoes and leeks in large pot and cover with water. 2. Bring to boil, lower heat and simmer about 1-1/2 hours, until split peas and lentils are soft. 3. Add butter and stir until melted. 4. Add peppercorns and sea salt to taste. |
