Instructions
Heat the oil in a pot and add the paprika powder and onions. Saute for a moment.
Add the diced carrots and sweet potatoes as well as vegetable stock powder, black pepper and water. Let boil until the vegetables have softened.
Rinse the red lentils. Add the lentils and tomato paste into the pot. Simmer while stirring occasionally until the lentils have softened. Puré the soup with a blender and add water if needed.
Add the lemon juice. Season with salt and sugar. Add chilli powder if you wish.
Tip! If it’s not possible to puré the soup, you can skip this step. Alternatively, you can use ready-made carrot and sweet potato purés. In this case, cook the lentils first and then add the puréd vegetables.
