Turkish soup

Description

The recipe won't take much time. Traditionally, this delicate lentil soup is served for lunch, but some even prefer it for breakfast. Many Turkish women prepare it for dieting purposes, as this recipe is considered low-calorie. It's very easy and quick to make—I recommend everyone try it to see for themselves. Ladle into bowls and serve.
