How To Make Turkish Red Lentil Vegan Soup!

in food •  7 years ago  (edited)

Red Lentil soup is a hearty and delicious Turkish soup made with red lentils, tomato paste and Turkish spices.

When I make this soup, I always remember the story behind it's tradition. It’s quick to make, cheap, and filling. I'm vegan until 2015 and make vegan version almost every kind of turkish food. For this version, I’m following classic Turkish preparation and seasonings: onion, red pepper mint, and black pepper.

Unlike green or brown lentils, red lentils break down very easily when cooked and transform into a creamy texture when blended. This soup can be made as smooth as you like; just keep blending for instead, granulated, blend briefly for more texture.
