Lentil Soup

A more traditional lentil soup recipe, but suitable for vegetarians.

Ingredients

1 lb lentils
1 lb potatoes
1 large onion
1 head of celery
1 cupful of tinned tomatoes or 1/2 lb. of fresh ones
1 oz. of butter
pepper and salt to taste

Method

Chop the onion up roughly, and fry it in the butter until beginning to brown.

Pick and wash the lentils, and set them over the heat with 4 pints of water or vegetable stock, adding the fried onion.

Peel, wash, and cut up the potatoes, prepare the celery, cut it into small pieces, and add all to the lentils.

When they are nearly soft add the tomatoes. When all the ingredients are quite tender liquidize or rub them through a sieve.

Return the soup to the saucepan, add pepper and salt, and more water if the soup is too thick.

Serve with slices of toast or chunks of crusty bread.smrtovnice
