My family absolutely LOVED this soup! I couldn't find canned lentils at my grocery store, so I got dried lentils in a bag and used 280g = 8 serv. I added one more cup of water, & I also added 1/2 c. of flour. I cooked the soup about 3 hours to help it thicken, blend the flavors, and soften the vegs. - 6/19/08
