This red lentil soup recipe was developed through pure necessity. The fridge was bare, with the exception of a few celery stalks, carrots, leeks, and some leftover crushed tomatoes, and I had Red lentil soup, coming right up!
Steps to make Salty Pirate's Red Lentil Soup:
- To create the Black Bean Stock: state with 1 lb dry black beans. I recommend against pre-soaking to capture full flavor, but pre-soak will cut time in half. Wash in cold water for 3-5 minutes, drain off (pre-soak 8-12 hours optionally at this point save water if so). Bring to a full boil in a large pot for 15 minutes, strain any foam off. Lower to a medium simmer and add ground pepper. (The beans will boil over easily so keep an eye on them). After 30-45 minutes test a bean, if it's starting to tender (fully chewable) then lower to low simmer and add salt. After about 90-120 minutes total beans should be done (will vary). Scoop out beans or pour through a civ to save boil water as stock.
- Place dry split red lentils in the hot stock and bring up to a low boil (you may need to add some additional water as needed).
- While the lentils are boiling in a separate pan sauté chopped/diced red onion and garlic in butter (I used goats milk butter for a lighter creamy taste). Sauté until well browned and caramelized. Remove from heat.
- When lentils have been boiling for 20 minutes add sautéed garlic/onions and mix in all of the spices. Lower temp and simmer for 10-15 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure spices infuse and no beans are sticking to the pot.
I'm convinced that improvisational cooking can lead to our best creations. Red lentils break down into a naturally creamy soup. Green and brown lentils make hearty soup with a bite. Adjust salt to taste in case your bouillon cubes are less salty than mine. If you use water + bouillon cubes, boiling it in a kettle first while you are prepping ingredients saves time.
