Eat For Eight Bucks: Lentil Soup Recipe

1. 1

   Heat the oil in a soup pot over a medium heat. Add the onion and carrot and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute; then add the lentils and cook, stirring, for 1 minute more. Add enough water (or stock, if you have it) to cover the lentils by a few inches, 4-6 cups depending on your pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer 30-45 minutes, until the lentils are completely tender. Taste for salt and pepper. Stir in vinegar just before serving.
