SOUPS:
Red Lentil Soup with Lamb
(Shourabit 'Ads)
Combine the following ingredients, bring to boil, cover and simmer 1 hour:
- 2 cups ads majroosh (red lentils)
- 1 pound or more lamb shanks
- 6 cups water
- 1-1/2 t. salt
- 1/2 t. black pepper
Sauté until soft in:
- 3 T. olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
Add:
- 4 cups chopped Swiss chard
Cook and stir until chard is wilted. Add to soup and simmer 15 minutes.
Then add:
Adjust seasonings and serve with lamb shank on side, or cut up in the soup. The red lentils turn a golden color, making the soup attractive with the green of the chard. Thick and creamy. May be made ahead of time.
Serves 6.
