3/4 tsp hot pepper flakes, divided
2 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley

How to make it

1

In medium saucepan set over medium-high heat, cook red lentils and 5 cups water; bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 to 25 minutes or until lentils are falling apart and very tender.

Meanwhile, in large saucepan set over medium-high heat, heat oil. Cook onion, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until tender and starting to brown. Stir in tomatoes and 1/2 tsp hot pepper flakes. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.
3

Stir lentil mixture into onion mixture; bring to a boil. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 to 5 minutes or until flavors are married. Using immersion blender, purée soup until smooth.
