Instructions

Step 1

Allow the butter to melt in a thick-bottomed pan on high heat, but without burning.

Step 2

Sear onions and garlic for ½ minute. Add the tomato paste and cook the sauce for ½ minute more.

Step 3

Add broth, lentils, tomatoes, chilli sauce and salt. Boil the soup covered, on a low heat for 15 minutes or until the lentils are tender.

Step 4

Cut the toast into cubes of 1½ x 1½ cm. Put the butter in a small baking pan and place it in the oven briefly until the butter is melted.

Step 5

Cook for 10 mins, at 225 ° in a traditional oven. Turn the bread, garlic and salt into the melted butter and shake the bread in the middle of the oven - toss around occasionally.

Step 6

Eat the warm, roasted bread with the soup alongside some Greek yogurt and sweet chilli sauce. You can add some water if the soup is too thick.

Enjoy!
