This recipe is the crockpot adaptation of Mrs Falafel's Lentil and Apricot Soup from the alt.food.vegan newsgroup. It must be one of the most popular recipes ever to come up in that group and it is also superb and even easier in the crockpot. I throw it all together before work and eat it about 8 hours later. The apricots mush down and all it needs is a quick stir before serving. Great served with hot cornbread
1 cup red lentils
1 onion, diced
1 teaspoon oil
1 clove garlic, finely diced
4-1/3 cups water or stock
2 slices fresh ginger, thin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon cumin seed, ground
1 teaspoon coriander seed, ground
1 pinch chili powder or chili flakes, to taste
1/4 cup dried apricots
lemon juice or lemon salt, to taste
salt and pepper
chopped cilantro, to garnish
Wash and drain lentils. Chop up everything that requires chopping and throw the lot in the crockpot.
Cook on the AUTO setting of the crockpot Garnish with cilantro when serving.
Really nice with crusty bread!
