Ingredients
1 Cup Dried Lentils Washed well
4 Cups Chicken Broth or Vegetable Stock for Vegan
2 Roma Tomatoes Halved
1 Cup Water
1/2 White Onion Cut into quarters
1 Garlic Clove
1 Large Russet Potato, Peeled and Diced to even small chunks
Handful of cilantro with stems (the whole piece of cilantro).
Salt and Pepper to taste
Instructions
Rinse dried lentils well and place in a medium pot with a lid and 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to medium for a gently simmer.
While lentils are cooking place Tomatoes, Onion, Garlic, and water or broth in a blender. Blend till smooth.
After 10 minutes of the lentils simmering, add the pureed tomato sauce, the diced potatoes, and cilantro. Bring the heat back to a gentle boil, cover and cook for an additional 15 minutes. Check the lentils, once they are soft the soup is done.
You can remove the cooked cilantro stems if you like, but I leave them in.
Serve the lentil soup with more cilantro on top, and a few squeezes of lime.
