  2. Preheat the crockpot on high
  3. Add the lentils to a saucepan, with water to cover. Bring them to a boil
  4. If you're using pearl barley, boil it also, with the lentils

  17. Remove the kombu and bay leaves + the herb sprigs if you used fresh
  18. 15 minutes before serving, add salt & pepper to taste, and minced fresh parsley

Long Crockpot Method:

  1. Use pearl barley or cooked whole barley
  2. Add all ingredients except salt, pepper and fresh cilantro to the cold crockpot, turn on low and cook for 8 hours
  3. Remove kombu & bay leaf, add salt, pepper & fresh parsley about 15 minutes before serving

Recipe Tips

I used the vegetables that I had on hand, but you could substitute other veggies in this soup - the tomato and parsley are kind of essential though.

We used pre-cooked whole barley because we just happened to have cooked some the night before. If you don't have or didn't cook whole barley, use pearl barley, cooked or not.

Want your soup for lunch? Use the quick crockpot method. If you want it for supper, just throw everything in the crockpot, turn it on low, and go away for 8 hours or so.
