  one of the quickest soups to make, fab flavour (and a great way of getting lentils into your diet if you don't like them!). Definitely worthy of 5 stars.

  Delicious! Have made it about six times now. Lovely garnished with chopped coriander. Best of all, it's really quick to make.

  I really loved this recipe. It was very simple and tasty - even my other half (who says he really dislikes lentils) thought it was tasty. I think the little scattering of tangy spring onions on top is a great extra too - works really well with the soups warm and rich flavour. And I'll definitely be making it again.

  Quite possibly my favourite soup I've ever made. I used Thai green curry paste instead of red and it was amazing.

  Lovely! Perfect winter soup. I used green Thai paste as had no red paste, added canned butter beans for the last five mins, and didn't blend as don't have a blender. Tasted absolutely scrumptious. Wish I had some naan bread with it as that would have perfected the meal!

  This was delicious. Easy to make as well. Used Green paste as that is what I had and also didnt bother blending (too lazy!) It was great. Could it be frozen, before the cocnut cream is added? It would be good to make a big batch.

  This was really lovely, I added a tiny bit of salt to bring it all together. I also let it cool then reheated it and it got slightly thicker which I personally liked.

  Tried this once. It was fine. I think I will add a bit of lemon grass next time and a squeeze of lime to enrich the flavour. Still, love it for healthy option :)
