Lentil Soup
This is the version of lentil soup from Cyprus that my grandma used to make. It is very similar to the Greek one, and it is fully vegan.

from “Falling Cloudberries” by Tessa Kiros In the book, the recipe description reads: “This is so simple. It’s a very typical Cipriot all-in-one meal–you just need the time to prepare the lamb and vegetables, then you can fling it in the oven, go out for a (Greek) coffee, and come home to a ready meal. You could use lamb chops and leave them whole instead of cutting them into chunks, which makes it even simpler. And it doesn’t need much by way of accompaniments–perhaps a salad or some simply sauteed vegetables.”
From Cyprus. Adapted from The Food of the Greek Islands. Posted for ZWT6. Salad may be prepared through step 2, covered and refrigerated 3-4 hours before continuing with recipe.

This is a bit different than your normal Greek Salad in that it uses lambs lettuce and coriander for the salad leaves. You can add other ingredients if you wish or use lemon juice instead of vinegar.
