FAQ
Helen's lentil & carrot soup. Add the lentils, then pour in 1 litre of water and bring to the boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the lentils are soft. Sieve, blend, mash or leave the soup as is, then serve.
The other good news: Lentils don't need to soak as beans do (though you do need to sort and rinse them before cooking). Different types of lentils cook in different amounts of time. Red lentils are the fastest cooking and they dissolve as they cook and make for a smooth soup.
Over 6-7 hours, the lentils should be at least hydrated, which would not leave them hard. My guess is too much salt too early at too low a temp. Cook for longer, and/or increase the heat for this recipe. Also, if it calls for an acid of any kind, tomato, vinegar, lemon juice, etc.
Slow cookers are specially designed to cook food for long periods of time, but yes, you can still overcook in a slow cooker if something is left on the wrong setting for longer than it's supposed to be.
“Dal” has a double meaning: It is both the word for lentils and beans and the term for a thick purée or soup made from lentils. Lentil dal is essentially just a lentil soup.
