I choosed lentil soup ("Mercimek çorbası")



Ingredients:

Preperation:

Fry onion on oil first. Wash the lentils, then add ro onion with tomate paste and chicken broth.
Then add boiling water.
Cook for a 10-15 min. After 10 minutes, mix all products in the pot (this process to separate the smaller pieces of lentils)
