Shorbat Adas
Report
This lentil soup comes together in only 15 minutes, and the earthy umami and light tang from dried limes makes the flavor pop!

Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 260 grams onion (~1 small , finely minced)
- 14 grams garlic (~2 large cloves, finely minced)
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 6 cups vegetable stock
- 200 grams red lentils (~1 cup, thoroughly washed)
- 3 dried limes
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
Instructions
- Add the olive oil onions and garlic to a pressure cooker and saute the onions until they are soft and browned. Add the cumin and continue sauteing until the cumin is very fragrant.
- Add the vegetable stock, washed lentils, dried limes, tomato paste, salt and turmeric.
- Seal the pressure cooker lid and set for high pressure. Bring the pressure cooker up to pressure over high heat and then turn down the heat to maintain a steady stream of steam and cook for 7 minutes.
- When the Shorbat Adas is done, use the quick release feature of your cooker to quickly bring down the pressure (for my cooker I put it in the sink and run it under cold water).
- Adjust salt to taste and serve drizzled with some extra olive oil. You can also garnish with a bit of sumac for some extra tang.
