Cook time:
Total time:
- 2.5 cup red split lentils
- 8 cups water
- 1 russet style potato or 2-4 smaller red potatoes, diced
- 3-4 chopped carrots
- 2 small white onions or 1 large
- 4 large garlic cloves
- 1 veggie bouillon (optional)
- ΒΌ cup tomato paste
- 1 TBS Smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- Salt
- Pepper
- Add water to a large stock pot over high heat.
- Add all ingredients except for the salt (salt changes how lentils cook).
- Bring to a boil then simmer medium-low until everything is softened. I did about 30 minutes.
- Add tomato paste and salt to taste, stir to combine
- Blend the mixture (you may need to do this in batches) and return to stock pot.
- It will thicken when stored in the refrigerator, you can add a little water when reheating to thin it out if desired.
