I don't have very much experience in the kitchen, but one of my favorite things to have for lunch is lentil soup, especially if it's on the spicy side. (No, I'm not vegan or vegetarian.)
Does anyone have a good step-by-step recipe, including ingredients and preparation time? I don't have the slightest idea how to cook, so don't be afraid to provide details and warnings where there might be room for error.
Any other recipes for newbie cooks are also welcome!
Thanks in advance.
