Over one hundred people every day visit this blog looking for: Red Lentil Soup - Recipe.
This soup is a Dove favorite, not only for its flavor and simplicity, but also because it came from Claudia Roden, an Egyptian Jewish (now British) food writer born in Cairo. Her Sephardic family loved this soup, whereas I encountered it in Muslim Egyptian households as a Ramadan break fast specialty. Vegans in America love this soup made with vegetarian broth (or water). It's a true Middle East peace recipe.
It's cold and rainy here in Northern California so I'm re-posting this all time favorite. The Dove owns red lentil soup on the internet.
If you are a Middle East blogger and you want traffic, keep a recipe archive. As'ad Abu-Khalil will sneer but it's a fact. Old friends have found me online because they were googling Lebanese Green Beans and Tomatoes (another perennial source of web traffic to Dove's Eye View).
