Recipe's preparation

  1. Place onion, carrot and garlic in TM bowl and mix 5 SEC/SP 5.

    Add oil and sauté 5 MINS/VAROMA/SP 1.

    Add tarragon, thyme and paprika and sauté for a further 2 MINS/VAROMA/SP 1. Dice tomatoes during this step.

    Add water, diced tomatoes, lentils, bay leaves, salt and pepper and cook 45 MINS/100C/Gentle stir setting"Gentle stir setting" , or until lentils are soft. 

     

Tip

I am certain you could pre-soak the lentils to reduce cooking time, although this can split the lentils and make the soup more mushy. 

I used water and find this soup salty enough, but you could use vegetable stock.
