Turkish red lentil soup, also known as “Mercimek Çorbası,” is a popular and hearty soup made with red lentils, onions, carrots, potatoes, and various spices. The soup is typically pureed to create a smooth and creamy consistency, and it is often served with a squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil on top.

To prepare the soup, red lentils are first washed and soaked for a few hours to help soften them. They are then combined with chopped onions, garlic, carrots, and potatoes in a pot and cooked until the vegetables are tender. Spices like cumin, paprika, and red pepper flakes are added to the pot, giving the soup a warm and slightly spicy flavor.

Once the lentils and vegetables are fully cooked, the soup is pureed until it is smooth and creamy. It is then seasoned with salt and pepper and served hot with a garnish of fresh parsley or cilantro. Turkish red lentil soup is a healthy and satisfying meal that is perfect for cold winter days or as a comforting lunch or dinner any time of year.
