Re: Crockpot Soups
OK - here's a few!
Red Lentil Soup
1 large onion, finely chopped
1 3/4 cups (350 g) split red lentils
7 1/2 cups (1 3/4 liters) meat or chicken stock or water*
Salt and pepper
1 1/2 teaspoon cumin
juice of 1/2 to 1 lemon (I used 3 lemons)
Extra virgin olive oil to drizzle, to taste.
Put all ingredients in a crockpot, and cook on low for 8 hours. Let people help themselves to a trickle of olive oil or extra lemon juice.
The flavor is quite light, but nice. I used chicken broth that I made from boiling the bones of a chicken I roasted. I had roasted the chicken with lemon, garlic, onions, salt and pepper, so it worked out well. I think it would be bland if you used water and no broth or bouillon.
