LENTIL SOUP OF VENTOTENE ISLAND. Although less of a soup, more of a pottage. In any case it's very tasty, very healthy and very quick to make! You can change quantities to suit your own palate but this is the traditional version: ingredients
350g Lentils from Ventotene (no need to pre-soak). 2 cloves of garlic - thinly sliced. 1 large stick of celery - chopped. approx 4 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil - we like the flavour of olive oil from Itri. 4-5 tomatoes from Ventotene (we didn't have these so we used those long ones (from Latina). fresh basil leaves - washed & ripped up. chilli pepper - to taste (we used powdered but you can use fresh). salt - to taste.
