Spiced Moroccan lentil soup

This is a lovely, thick soup with a nice hint of spices, perfect for a cold winter's day. It does have quite a few different spices in it, but after you have had your Thermomix for a while, you find you will usually have most of them in the pantry anyway.

Its really easy to make, a bit of chopping and sautéing before adding the spices and cooking them off to release the flavours. Then the rest of the ingredients and lentils are added and it is just left to cook until the lentils are tender and just starting to break down.

What I like about this soup is that the ingredients are all things you have in your cupboard, so it is a recipe that you don't really have to plan for. When you feel like it, you can just gather the ingredients up and make it.

Happy thermomixing!
