Elvan Girl Soup


This is a very tasty soup, called as Elvan Kiz Corbasi in Turkish. It is a little spicy and hot. You can reduce or exclude the pepper if you don't like it hot.
I also noted down the exact weight in grams for the ingredients to be precise. Obviously it’s not like some bakery recipes where the precision may be very important. It's just indicative to show the exact amounts I used. I hope you like it

1 onion (85g)
1 carrot (85g)
30g margarine
20g olive oil
40g flour

1 potato (130g)
100g red lentils
1400g water
30g TM vegetable stock (or meat stock)
2 bay leaves (I didn't have them fresh at home so I used 1 tsp dried bay leaves)
½ lemon juice
2 cloves of garlic

1 tbsp dried mint leaves
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1 tsp white pepper
Enough salt
  • Cut onion and carrot into big chunks, put them in TM bowl and proceed for 5 seconds on Speed 7. Put them in a pan and keep aside
  • Cut potato into big chunks and put in TM bowl. Chop by speeding up from Level 2 to Level 5 three times (7 seconds in total)
  • Add red lentils, water, TM stock, bay leaves, lemon juice and garlic. Cook for 30 minutes at 100°C on Speed 1
  • Add margarine and olive oil on the vegetables in the other pan. Saute for a few minutes. Add the flour and sauté for a few minutes more
  • Blend your soup for 10 seconds Speed 10.
  • Transfer the cooked vegetables in the pan into TM Bowl. Cook for 5 minutes at 100°C on Speed 2
  • Add dried mint leaves, crushed red pepper and white pepper. (Add also salt if needed). Cook for another 5 minutes at 100°C on Speed 2
