German Lentil Soup Recipe

Directions

Dice potatoes, carrots, celeriac and parsley root into
fairly small cubes (about 1 cm). Cut leek in 1 cm rings.
Sauté the veggies in vegetable oil. Add lentils and
vegetable stock (note: lentils should be well covered!),
season with soy sauce, pepper, and some vegan sugar (I use at
least one teaspoonful). Add the laurel leaves and cook. In a
pressure cooker, this takes about 20 minutes.
When cooked, take out the laurel leaves and discard them,
add the vinegar (to taste) and tomato paste if desired.
This is a variation of a traditional German recipe.
If you want to be traditional you can serve this
with a vegetarian sausage - but it is nice by itself, and
particularly good for a cold winter day.
