Flourless tomato paste lentil soup is a home-style Turkish soup made by cooking lentils with onion and tomato paste, then blending or mashing them until smooth. Without flour, its thickness comes from the lentils themselves; seasonings and other vegetables vary from one kitchen to another.
Serve it hot, often with lemon squeezed in at the table and bread on the side. In Turkey it may begin a meal or make a simple lunch; elsewhere, it also works well as a warming, easy-to-serve soup. Lentils contribute plant protein and fibre, with 3.1 g of fibre per 100 g. For a lighter meal, pair a bowl with salad and keep the bread portion modest.
