Ingredients

    200 grams Lentils
    1 tbsp Olive Oil
    1 medium (2-1/2" dia) Onions, raw
    1 clove Garlic
    1 medium Carrots, raw
    0.25 tsp Oregano, ground
    2 tsp, crumbled Bay Leaf
    1 cup Pureed Tomatoes
    15 grams Tomato Paste
    1 dash Salt
    1 dash Pepper, black
    3 cup (8 fl oz) Water, tap

Directions

1.Wash the lentils thoroughly then place into a large pot with enough water to cover the lentils by 1 inch. Bring the water to the boil and cook until just tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
2.Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and carrot and cook for 4 minutes until the onion has softened. Add the garlic and cook for a further minute.
3.Add the cooked lentils, 750ml water, oregano and bay leaves. Bring to the boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.
4.Stir in the pureed tomatoes and tomato paste and continue to simmer with the lid on for about 25-35 minutes until the lentils are soft, stirring occasionally. Add additional water if the soup becomes too thick before the lentils have finished cooking.
5.Stir through the red wine vinegar and season with salt and pepper, to taste. You can also add in a squeeze of lemon!
