About Lentil Soup
Addas is a lentil soup, presented here in Abang Anade Othow’s Sudanese version. Red lentils give this bowl its substantial base, with onion, garlic and a small amount of aromatic seasoning.
Cumin and coriander add warmth to the savoury chicken broth. Coconut oil enriches the onion and garlic foundation, while a fresh coriander garnish gives the soup a greener herbal finish.
The lentils have a soft, lightly mashed texture that thickens the surrounding broth. The soup is presented in bowls with the fresh garnish scattered across its surface.
