ASIAN INSPIRED TOMATO SOUP FOR SUNDAY NIGHT

Tonight we make soup.
Or; I make, you watch.

You need:
Red lentils, (peeled) cherry tomatoes, canned crushed tomatoes, coconut milk and chili sauce.

(...bonus pic of cat in between, watching the pot while cooking...)

And to make a long story short; you get:


Not that the story is that long if written out either - just boil the ingredients in mentioned order, first the lentils, then the cherry tomatoes etc. You can also go for just crushed the tomatoes if you want. Spice with some chili sauce, soy sauce, garlic and fresh coriander (if your lucky enough to have some at home -I didn't have any today) and whatever you feel like, a drop of lemon perhaps.
Done! If you want to pimp it up add shrimps, tofu or chopped vegetables, but the soup works fine just like that.
