Directions
Place lentils, water, salt, pepper, and cumin in a pot and bring to boil.
Cover and cook over medium heat for 25 minutes.
In the meantime, heat oil in frying pan; then sauté onions, garlic, and hot pepper over medium heat for about 10 minutes.
Add coriander and stir-fry for 3 more minutes.
Add frying pan contents and vermicelli to lentils and bring to a boil.
Cover and simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes or until vermicelli and lentils are well- cooked.
The fresh coriander and cooked vermicelli add an interesting touch to this version of lentil soup.
