    It's interesting that this a Scottish recipe 😊.... I have been cooking this one as my own recipe for more than 20 years..the only difference is that I am using the green lentils and I soak them before cooking, and i use the fresh tomatoes instead of the puree :) Happy to know that my recipe is a Scottish recipe!!!❤

    Simple is almost always best in my book.
    No black (or any other peppercorn pepper) for me due to allergy. For a tiny bit of kick, there are many ways to substitute. Sounds good for this cold day when the fog never fully burned off.

    As a Scot who makes Lentil Soup regularly, I've never known Celery or Onion in it!! Red Lentils, grated Carrots, sliced Leeks plus 2 Knorr Ham stock cubes is my recipe. Finished with finely chopped Parsley. And of course, a Ham Hiugh if I can get one!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    • @ScottBaptie

      Adding the ham would be yum but not sure why you wouldn't have an onion in it? In my opinion it's only going to add more flavour.

    I'm making this right now! One question.. The tomato puree.. It looks very thick.. More like what we in the states call tomato paste. Maybe it's just a difference in terminology? Here in the states tomato puree is something you pour in to the pot and tomato paste has to be spooned in because it's so thick.. Cheers!

      "Lentils are naturally gluten-free. They are recommended for people with celiac disease and other gluten-related disorders. However, like oats, they appear to be at a heightened risk of cross contact with gluten-containing grains. This is due in part to farming practices. Lentils may come into contact with wheat, barley, or rye while being grown, harvested, and/or stored." www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9101047/#:~:text=Lentils%20are%20naturally%20gluten%2Dfree.,contact%20with%20gluten%2Dcontaining%20grains.
