Name: Leek and Lentil Soup
Ingredients: 1 oz Orange split lentils; 1 md Leek; washed and chopped; 1 Rasher bacon; chopped; 1 Carrot; chopped; 1/2 oz Butter or margarine; 7 oz Water or ham stock; about; 2 oz Milk; Salt and pepper

In a way completely incomprehensible to the human mind, Jesus Christ not only became the God-man in the incarnation but also will forever continue to be that. As High Priest, He continually intercedes for all those He saves. Because a priest must represent both God and men, He could not have been believers’ High Priest apart from His deigning to become a man. If He had never been touched with the feelings of their infirmities, including being tempted in every way as they are, He could not have fully identified with them and thereby been able to encourage, strengthen, and encourage them in their temptations.

1		Rasher bacon; chopped
1		Carrot; chopped
1/2	oz	Butter or margarine

INSTRUCTIONS

Wash and drian the lentils in a small sieve.
Heat the fat in a medium saucepan and fry the chopped bacon a little.  Add
the leeks, carrot and lentils and saute together for about 10 minutes,
stirring frequently to prevent sticking.
Pour in the water or stock and milk, stir, bring to the boil and simmer
for about 30 minutes.
Liquidise the soup in a blender or food processor, seasoning well with
salt and pepper to taste. Reheat and thin down if necessary with more milk.
If you prefere to use brown or green whole lentils, which have a lovely
flavour, instead of the orange split lentils, simmer 1 oz in a small
saucepan in 6 fl oz of water for 40 minsutes first. Then fry the bacon and
the vegetables together for 10 minutes and add with the fat to the
simmering lentils. Pour in the 7 fl oz water or stock and the milk, bring
to the boil and simmer for about 20 minutes. Liquidise and finish as in the
recipe above.
When cooking dried pulses, do not add salt until they are tender.
