Oorah marketer Mrs. Esti Barker is as creative in her cooking as she is in her marketing. This recipe, a recent concoction of hers, is perfect for those nights when you have few ingredients in your pantry and little time left until dinner but still want to serve something “warm and welcome.” With temperatures so low these days, your family will be happy to be served up a bowl of steaming hot and filling soup.
Ingredients:
1 large Spanish onion
olive oil
3 Idaho potatoes, peeled and diced
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 cup carrots, chopped
1 cup lentils
4 cubes frozen garlic
1 cube frozen cilantro
salt and pepper
