This soup is packed with gorgeous, natural flavour and you can eat it without feeling in the slightest bit guilty! Result!!

1 Large Onion Chopped finely
1kg Carrots, peeled and chopped
100g Red Lentils
1.5l Chicken or Vegetable Stock
Maldon Salt and Pepper to taste
Olive Oil
3 tsp Curry Powder (I used 2 mild and 1 medium…depends how spicy you like it!)
Add some oil to a large pot, heat and then add in the chopped onions. Fry gently for 5-6 mins.

Add the chopped carrots and fry for another couple of mins.

Add the curry powder and fry for another two minutes.

Add the stock and the red lentils and stir well to separate.

Add some salt and pepper and bring to the boil, turn down and simmer for around 15-20 mins or until the carrots are nice and soft.

When done, whizz up with a hand held blender. Health in a bowl! 😉
