Our most regular Ramadan soup:
4 cups water
1 cup red lentils
1 big onion
1 big tomato
1-2 cloves garlic
2 Tbsp parsley (or chives)
salt to taste, spices (cumin, pepper) to taste
- poor water in a cooking pan, put spices in, cover the pan & let it simmer on low heat.
- wash & rinse lentils, put into the pan & let them simmer on low heat.
- meanwhile chop onion & tomato, chop or press garlic, add all into the pan, remove the top & bring the veggies to a boil.
- when this happened, lower the heat, cover the pan & let the mix simmer till lentils slightly lose their integrity (you have to check it out from time to time, usually lasts 10-15 min)
- add parsley or chives & salt, stir & remove from the heat source.
...Sahtein!

Sounds good.... I know your dinner was good!
Thanks! I think it was pretty good, even with DH wanting the lentils more soupy. I took pics, and I will upload them soon. You all inspire me so much this Ramadan! I am glad we cook together!
