Red lentil and Chorizo Soup, Red Lentil and Chorizo Soup
Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

We found this red lentil and chorizo soup on the BBC Good Food website a few years ago and have made it quite a few times.   It's another soup that is both comforting and warming on a cold day.   Lentils and chorizo are 2 ingredients that we both really like...you'll find quite a few recipes on Felly Bull that have either ingredient in it.   Easy bollito misto has both, albeit it's puy lentils rather than red ones...it's delicious too!   Enjoy this soup with some homemade bread, buns, or savoury scones - see the links below to our recipes.

Tip

  • Note at step 2, the soup can be made a few days ahead or can be frozen for 6 months.

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the chorizo and cook until crisp and it has released its oils. Remove with a slotted spoon into a bowl, leaving the fat in the pan. Fry the onion, carrots, and cumin seeds for 10 minutes until soft and glistening, then add the garlic and fry for 1 minute more. Scatter over the paprika and sugar, cook for 1 minute, then splash in the vinegar. Simmer for a moment, then stir in the lentils, and pour over the tomatoes and chicken stock.
  2. Give it a good stir, then simmer for 30 minutes or until the lentils are tender. Blitz with a hand blender until smooth(ish) but still chunky. The soup can be made several days ahead or frozen for 6 months at this point.
  3. Serve in bowls,  scattered with the chorizo.
