A step-by-step recipe for lentil soup with mushrooms: a list of products and the technology for preparing a hot dish. Video recipes.
Lentil Soup is a delicious and healthy hot dish made with legumes. It can be cooked in broth to add flavor and more filling to the food. If you use vegetable broth or pure water, then the recipe is quite suitable for a vegetarian menu.
The cooking technology is very simple and is no different from the preparation of any other simple soup. The list of ingredients traditionally includes potatoes and fried carrots and onions. Champignons are an important addition that influences taste and aroma. They can be taken fresh or frozen.
In this recipe for lentil mushroom soup, we suggest using red beans, peeled from the shell, because they quickly reach readiness and do not require preliminary cooking. If you increase the processing time, they will boil up and make the food thicker. Of course, you can take any other variety - brown, green, black or yellow lentils, but then you should take into account the cooking recommendations outlined on the package.
We use ground black pepper as flavoring additives. You can also take basil, oregano, a mixture of Italian or Greek herbs.
