Kotori everyday lentil soup

526 Views

This soup is grounded in earthy vegetables with the lentils providing the texture. We call it everyday soup as there are very few days when you would not want to have this. It’s also a perfect plant-based main that requires just a few ingredients, your Kotori and about an hour to make.
