If using fresh tomatoes do not remove the seeds as you will lose some of the health benefits , they will be pureed anyway.

If you are using canned lentils rinse them well under cold water and drain
6
Add all ingredients except the sliced tomatoes , cinnamon and sugar into a saucepan, slightly heat the contents in the pan, then puree into a very smooth soup, thickness to your liking.. Heat until cooked through and simmer for about 15 minutes.

Stir frequent to prevent setting onto the bottom of the pan.

Sprinkle the tomato slices from both sides with the sugar and dry fry in a hot pan until they slightly char and caramelise
9
Serve soup in bowls with the tomato slices sprinkle with cinnamon , add a few sprigs of fresh coriander
