Yummy Lentil and Tomato Soup

It's cold outside and we needed something warming that my recovering Harry would eat.  This is a really easy and tasty recipe.  Make about 4 servings.


Ingredients
1 onion, chopped
Tbsn olive oil
100g split red lentil, rinsed
2 small carrots, peeled and chopped
5 tomatoes, chopped.
1 stock cube made up water as per directions.

Method
Heat the olive oil ina medium sized saucepan.  Add the chopped onion and fry over a medium hear until soft but not browning.  Add the carrots, stir and fry for a further minute or so.  Add the lentils and the tomatoes. Add stock.  Bring to the boil.  Simmer until lentils and carrots are soft.  Blitz with a blender.  If you don't like tomato seeds, pour soup through a seive.  If you want a thinner soup add more water.   Serve with seed bread
