TURKISH LENTIL SOUP
Steps:
- Heat a large thick bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the oil, onion and carrot. Sauté, stirring regularly, until softened but not coloured, 8-10 minutes.
- Add the garlic, tomato paste, red pepper paste and sugar. Fry, stirring constantly, until aromas fill your kitchen and the tomato and pepper pastes have been cooked through and mixed well with the other ingredients, 1-2 minutes. Add the lentils and give it all a good stir.
- Add the water and season to taste with salt and pepper. The amount of water is for a fairly thin Turkish-style soup. Reduce the amount to 1 ltrs for a thicker version. Bring to a boil, pop on a lid and turn the heat down to low. Leave to simmer until the lentils are cooked through and starting to fall apart, around 15 minutes.
- Whizz with a stick blender (or regular blender, making sure not to overfill it). Leave off the heat for a few minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt the butter (or extra virgin olive oil) in a small pan or pot until melted and bubbling (or hot, in the case of the oil). Take off the heat and stir in the Aleppo pepper.
- Serve the soup warm with a spoonful of chili butter as well as a sprinkling of freshly chopped flat-leaf parsley, if you like. And don't forget a squeeze of lemon juice.

VEGAN TURKISH RED LENTIL SOUP
This delicious red lentil soup is super easy to make and full of flavor. It's vegan as well -- win/win! My dad combined a few different recipes over the years and this one was decidedly the winner. It's been made by many people throughout the family and is always met with great compliments! Cannot emphasize enough that you really need to use red lentils for this recipe as it's key to the taste. If you can't find them in your regular grocery store, they are always in stock at the nearest Indian food market. Best served with your favorite freshly baked bread!

- Pour the soup into a blender to no more than half full. Firmly hold the lid in place and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree in batches until smooth; pour into your serving dish. Alternately, you can use a stick blender and puree the soup in cooking pot.

- Before you start cooking I suggest that you keep your red split lentils to soak for 20-30 mins. This will soften the lentils so that they cook faster. At the same time, it ensures that the lentils are soft, which in turn will help you to digest the lentils easier. You can skip that step if you are short on time and if you have an instant pot/pressure cooker.
- Prepare all your vegetables before you start out cooking. This will help you in your cooking flow.
- To get cooking, pour the olive oil into a shallow cooking pan and fry your onion slices soft. Then continue to add in the tomato and garlic as well as the carrot pieces.
- Then season with paprika and cumin powder and add a tablespoon of tomato paste. Stir fry the whole content on low to medium heat.
