Ingredients:
- 1 Tbsp Mazola Canola Oil
- 1/2 onion, finely diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp cumin
- 3/4 tsp turmeric
- 8 cups chicken stock
- 1 1/2 cups red lentils
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 1 lemon, cut in 4 wedges
Instructions:
- Heat Mazola Canola Oil over medium-low heat, then add the onion and cook until soft, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Once the onions have softened, add the garlic, cumin, and turmeric, stirring for another minute. Pour in the stock and increase the heat to medium-high.
- Rinse and drain the lentils, then add them to the soup. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 35 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve with a wedge of lemon—be sure to squeeze it into your soup for extra flavour!
