| Lentil soup for one (or more) |
I have a dear friend named Helen, with whom I've cooked many times.
Helen makes a mean lentil soup and stirred up a pot of it one night at a beach house we had rented together. The deal was this: if you came for the week, you had to cook one night and clean up the others. Except for one fine fellow, who appeared to be only in charge of libations. Fine by me.
Friend Suzy grilled fine tuna and stirred up some Italian beans and herbs to slip under the fish. I think I made breakfast...,an egg casserole and cinnamon rolls. But Helen made this soup and I watched her. I came home and tried to duplicate and document the process, but I ended up with something different, of course. Is it as good? I'm not so sure, but you know everything tastes good at the beach. Here's the soup, which with your changes/additions will become your own. Work on it after you've made it once; add the vegetables you like and change or leave out the meat.
