About Turkish lentil soup
Turkish Lentil Soup, known as "Mercimek Çorbası," is a cherished staple of Turkish cuisine, celebrated for its simplicity and comforting taste. This hearty soup is typically made with red lentils, onions, carrots, garlic, and tomato paste, seasoned with cumin and paprika for a rich, earthy flavor. Often garnished with fresh lemon juice and parsley, it pairs beautifully with crusty bread. Nutritionally, this soup is a powerhouse, offering plant-based protein, fiber, and essential vitamins such as folate and iron from the lentils. It’s low in fat and free from cholesterol, making it ideal for heart health and digestion. However, its nutritional profile may vary based on preparation, such as added butter or oils for depth of flavor. Turkish Lentil Soup strikes the perfect balance between wholesome, nourishing ingredients and bold, comforting flavors.
