So I thought I was going to make Bulgarian lentil soup. This didn't happen exactly as I planned. These things happen. It turns out that I don't have a recipe for it.

I figured that I'd put lentils in a pan with water, carrots, a can of tomatoes and a potato. Then I added what I thought were Bulgarian spices: salt, pepper, red pepper and parsley.

It was tasty but I am told: not Bulgarian. It was too thick.
