      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

  • Very nice soup! ...

    Very nice soup!
    I used red lentils instead and didn’t soak the lentils or the barley.
    Also, I chopped the zucchini and the potato as we like it a Bit chunkier. This will definitely go onto our roster. Thanks for posting!

  • Love this recipe, I usually leave out the barley...

    Submitted by elisabre on 18. June 2019 - 08:18.

    Love this recipe, I usually leave out the barley because I find it filling enough without it. Great vegan, gluten free, healthy soup recipe that’s filling. I purée it for my one year old and he loves it. Made it over twenty times without fail features at our house once month on the menu. Never costs me more then $15 to make a whole meal.

    Perfect soup, I use red split lentils & I swap out potato for fresh corn and sweet potato and add a tsp of curry powder too. Have made this literally every week for a year! Thanks!!

    Submitted by JeffnJulie on 2. August 2017 - 13:12.

    Easy to make. We pre-soaked the grains overnight and followed some of the other suggestions e.g. added 3 tblsp veggie stock instead of 2 tbslp, 1 teaspoons chopped chilli & 1 teaspoon chopped ginger. Used a capsicum instead of zucchini. All this created a lovely, tasty, filling and nutritious soup with plenty left over for a couple of meals. Thank you very much for the recipe.

  • I had issues with bubbling

    Submitted by linleck on 1. September 2016 - 13:04.

    I had issues with bubbling over, but I put the simmering basket on top and it wasn't too bad. Might have to try a little bit less liquid next time. Delicious as is, but I think I might try it with diced tomatoes instead of tomato paste next time as that's the way my mum made it growing up.  Thanks for a great recipe!

    Submitted by treena024 on 22. May 2016 - 16:19.

    This is my favourite soup recipe. I also add ginger and chilli to give it some extra flavour but doesn't last long enough in this household!

  • Loved it! Had to modify for

    Submitted by sonlou on 24. February 2016 - 19:13.

    Loved it! Had to modify for my TM31 as follows:

    100g dry red lentils,  50g pearl barley,  850g water.

    Used only 1 potato, and added 2 stalks celery, kept everything else the same as per recipe. Hand chopped the veggies to keep the texture, personal preference only. Would work well with curry powder - will try next time

  • My whole family loved this

    Submitted by gina97 on 16. January 2016 - 19:58.

    My whole family loved this soup.  I used whatever vegies that I found in the fridge.  I used tinned lentils as I haven't got any dried ones.  Very easy on the budget too.  Thank you for sharing.

  • This is such an easy recipe

    Submitted by nikic84 on 5. November 2015 - 16:09.

    This is such an easy recipe to make! I used up all my not so good looking veggies. I left a small amount in the bowl and blended it up to use as sauce for my kids pasta because they "don't" eat vegetables.
