    This cumin and chili-scented 5 ingredient soup comes together in a snap! A big dollop of yogurt at the end cools it off.

    I enjoyed this soup, but Dino wasn't really into it. He may have liked it more if I puréed it after cooking, but I didn't mind the texture. It came together really quickly, which was perfect for a busy weeknight.

    Hearty Red Lentil Soup

    185g dried red lentils, rinsed
    ½ - 1 teaspoon dried chilli flakes
    1 tablespoon ground cumin
    400g can tomatoes, chopped
    natural yoghurt, to serve

    See 5 Ingredients 10 Minutes: Delicious, Healthy Recipes for Tired and Hungry Cooks - Jules Clancy for the full recipe.
