Thank you Faiena for sharing your wonderful self with all of us and thank you for being such a great friend The Best Thing in the World by Elizabeth Barrett Browning What's the best thing in the world? June-rose, by May-dew impearled; Sweet south-wind, that means no rain; Truth, not cruel to a friend; Pleasure, not in haste to end; Beauty, not self-decked and curled Till its pride is over-plain; Love, when, so, you're loved again. What's the best thing in the world? --Something out of it, I think.

    This afternoon I went out to the new Turkish cafe to have dinner; They served Lentil Soup for the first course; it was so tasty, I'd like to share the recepi to cook it. Lentil soup is a soup of lentils, served hot. It is popular all over the Middle East, Hungary and Germany. ... Usually it is vegetarian, but can also be made with meat stock. Red or green lentils may be used. Other ingredients may include vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, celery, parsley, and onion. Common added flavorings include garlic, cumin, lemon juice, olive oil, and vinegar. It is sometimes garnished with croutons or chopped herbs. Lentil soup is mentioned in the Bible: In Genesis 25:34, Esau is prepared to give up his birthright for a pot of fragrant red lentil soup (a "mess of pottage") being cooked by his brother, Jacob. The ancient Greek dramatist, Aristophanes, mentions lentil soup in his plays and describes it as the "sweetest of delicacies." Lentil soup was once a food for the poor. Today, it is recognized as highly nutritious and provides a good source of protein, fiber, iron and potassiu Lentil soup Ingredients * 1 or 2 tablespoons olive oil * 1 onion, diced * 2 carrots, diced * 2 cloves garlic, minced * 1/2 lb dry red lentils * 6 cups water or stock * 1 bay leaf Procedure 1. Pick over the lentils and remove any stones etc. Rinse well. 2. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once oil is hot, add the onion and carrots. Cook for a few minutes, until the vegetables have started to soften, then add the garlic. 3. Add the lentils, bay leaf, and water to the pot. Simmer over low-medium heat for 20-30 minutes, until lentils are softened. Serves 4. You are welcome, I hope you like it too Have a good appetite ! /
