GREEK LENTIL SOUP RECIPE (FAKES SOUPA)



Greek Lentil Soup recipe (Fakes Soupa) image

A traditional, creamy, healthy and delicious Greek lentil soup recipe. Prepare your lentil soup the traditional Greek way, with some fresh herbs, extra virgin olive oil, a splash of red wine vinegar and top with crumbled feta cheese!

Provided by Eli K. Giannopoulos

Categories     Main

Time 1h

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

500g brown lentils (17-18 ounces)
5 cups of water
1 small red onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup olive oil
1 tbsp tomato paste (optional)
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • To prepare this Greek lentil soup recipe, start by washing the lentils thoroughly and let them soak in water for about 2 hours. If you like, you can skip this process by adding them into a deep pan along with some water and place over high heat. As soon as they come to the boil, drain them into a colander.
  • Place a pan over medium-low heat and add the lentils, the water (warmed), the chopped onions, the chopped garlic and the bay leaves. Simmer with the lid on for about 25 minutes.
  • Pour in the olive oil and the red wine vinegar, and season well with salt and pepper. If you prefer your Greek lentil soup to be 'reddened', then add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste.
  • Boil the lentil soup for another 15 minutes, until it thickens and check out if they are done; keep in my mind that different kinds of lentils cook at different times.
  • Serve this delicious Greek lentil soup with a splash of red wine vinegar and a drizzle of olive oil. Top with some crumbled feta cheese and enjoy!

1 16 oz green Lentils
1 red onion (diced)
3 garlic cloves (smashed)
2 carrots ( cut in 1/4 inch pieces)
2 stalks celery ( cut in 1/4 inch pieces)
32 oz vegetable stock

1 /4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Rinse the lentils and drain well.

Check lentils often until they have the desired texture. Adjust liquids too, you might need to add a little water or stock to achieve your desired soup consistency).
  • Add salt and freshly ground pepper to taste.
  • Serve lentils in bowls with a slight sprinkle of red hot chili pepper flakes, a 1 tbsp olive, a tbs of red wine vinegar (optional) and warm crusty bread on the side.

FAKES (GREEK LENTIL SOUP RECIPE)



Fakes (Greek lentil soup recipe) image

Traditional Greek lentil soup with vegetables and a tomato based broth.

Provided by Mia Kouppa

Categories     Light meal     Main Course     Soup

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 cups (16 oz or 400 grams) dry green lentils
1/3 cup (80 mL) olive oil
1 1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 medium size carrot, diced
1 celery stalk, cut into small chunks
3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
3-4 bay leaves
6 cups (1,500 mL) water (approximately)
1 1/3 cup (330 mL) tomato sauce
1 medium potato, peeled and grated (optional (see notes below))
1/4 cup medium grain rice (optional (see notes below))
1/2 tsp pepper
1 1/2 tsp salt
splash red wine vinegar (optional)

Steps:

  • Pick over the lentils and remove any shrivelled pieces and small stones.
  • Cover the lentils with warm water for 3 - 4 hours. Change water every hour or so. Drain.
  • Add lentils to a pot and cover with an inch of water. Bring water and lentils to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes and then drain lentils and discard the water they were boiled in. Rinse lentils.
  • While the lentils are boiling, prepare your vegetables by finely dicing onion, carrot and celery, thinly slicing the garlic and grating your potato if you're adding it.
  • In a large pot (you can use the same pot you just boiled the lentils in - but dry it first) combine the olive oil and chopped onion. Cook onion over medium heat until soft, approximately 5 minutes.
  • Add carrot, celery, garlic and bay leaves to pot with onions. Cook for a few minutes, stirring constantly to prevent garlic from burning.
  • Add the lentils, water (6 cups or enough to cover the lentils by 1 inch), tomato sauce, and the grated potato(or rice if you are using either).
  • Bring to boil and then reduce to medium heat. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes. Add salt and pepper 15 minutes into the cooking process. Total cooking times may vary depending upon the age of the lentils, and whether or not you soaked them, and for how long. Your fakes are done when they are soft to the bite. For those who want, you can add a splash (1 teaspoon or so) of red wine vinegar to each individual portion
  • Enjoy!

GREEK LENTIL SOUP (FAKES)



Greek Lentil Soup (Fakes) image

Fakes (pronounced 'Fah-kehs') is a staple in the Greek kitchen, and an especially filling meal. It is traditionally served with a drizzle of olive oil and lots of vinegar. Though the vinegar is of course optional, try it. It lifts the lentils and adds another dimension of flavor!

Provided by Diana Moutsopoulos

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Beans and Peas     Lentil Soup Recipes

Time 1h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 ounces brown lentils
¼ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 medium onion, minced
1 large carrot, chopped
1 quart water
1 pinch dried oregano
1 pinch crushed dried rosemary
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon tomato paste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 teaspoon olive oil, or to taste
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar, or to taste

Steps:

  • Place lentils in a large saucepan; add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Bring water to a boil and cook for 10 minutes; drain.
  • Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic, onion, and carrot; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in lentils, 1 quart water, oregano, rosemary, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 10 minutes.

EV'S LENTIL SOUP (GREEK - FAKESS)



Ev's Lentil Soup (Greek - Fakess) image

In honour of Mirjam. This soup is called Fakess (pronounced 'fahKESS') in Greek. It is very good. This belongs to that category of Greek cooking called 'Ladera' which, literally translated, means 'made of oil'. Olive oil is not just a fat, it is a key ingredient and flavour booster and is totally necessary. When my oldest son was turning 4 and I asked him what he wanted for his birthday dinner, this is what he ordered. I've given directions for both conventional cooking and crockpot - which I tried today. The pearl barley is not traditional, but we really like it. I think it's the aftermath of a Campbell's Beef with Vegetables and Barley fixation I had in the a long time ago.

Provided by evelynathens

Categories     Lentil

Time 2h20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb small dried brown lentils, picked over and rinsed
1/2 cup bulgur wheat (optional) or 1/2 cup pearl barley (optional)
2 large onions, minced
5 garlic cloves, quartered
4 medium carrots, grated fine
2 1/2 tablespoons tomato paste
3 large bay leaves
2 teaspoons salt, to taste (or you can use 3 beef stock cubes with 1/2 tsp salt for this amount)
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 1/2 quarts boiling water
3/4 cup olive oil
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar

Steps:

  • In a large pot, cover lentils with boiling water and allow to boil for 10 minutes.
  • Drain lentils of this 'first boiling' (greeks think that this process makes the lentils easier to digest - I prefer it).
  • Put lentils back into pot.
  • Add bulgar or barley (if using), onions, garlic, carrots, tomato paste, bay leaves, salt and pepper.
  • Pour 2 ½ quarts of boiling water over lentils, bring to a boil.
  • When mixture boils, decrease temperature to leave the lentils cooking at a simmer and cook, covered, for 1 ½ hours.
  • Add olive oil and balsamic vinegar and simmer ½ an hour longer.
  • Taste.
  • If the lentils are still too firm to the bite, allow to cook until they are tender and soup has thickened (soup will continue to thicken as it cools).
  • If the soup is too thick, you can thin with a little hot water.
  • Traditionally, we eat this soup with lots of Kalamata olives, feta cheese and crusty bread.
  • I serve half the soup on one day and freeze the other half (it freezes beautifully) to serve on another day when I'm too busy to cook.
  • Crockpot Version: Put all the ingredients except for olive oil and balsamic vinegar into your crockpot.
  • Cook on low for 7 hours.
  • Add olive oil and balsamic vinegar and cook a further 2 hours.
  • Ev's notes: You can enrich this already delicious soup by making a couple of variations. Add 1/2 lb of minced bacon, but cut back the olive oil to a couple of tablespoonfuls; or add 1 lb of sliced sausage, like Kielbasa. Again, cut back on the oil.
  • New note: (added Dec. 27, 2004) I have taken to adding 1/2 cup bulgur wheat to this soup when I add all the other ingredients; it makes the soup more nutritionally complete if totally vegetarian, and really good and hearty; I strongly urge you try this version.
  • Freezer Note: This makes quite a lot of soup - definitely enough for 2 meals (plus a little extra for the super-hungry) for my family of 5. I have taken to freezing half the batch to provide me with a quick, nutritious dinner further on down the line when time is short and you don't want to resort to ordering inches Just defrost in microwave, reheat well and serve.
