Did it originate in Scotland?

Given lentils aren't inherently Scottish I don't think it's 'scottish' per say. Probably adopted. Lentils being the base, I'll have a stab at middle eastern origin.

Certainly used to be meat based when I was a kid, ham/ bacon etc but obviously with the increase in veggies (like moi) it's lost the meat content over the years.

Ma tuppence.

I'm sure you could place it in a drawer, porridge style, and deep fry the mass at a later date. No saying it would be Braw in any shape or form right enough.

My bf's old favourite soup was heinz scottish vegetable and lentil. Think I asumed lentil soup was scottish because of that.

They stopped making it years ago so he makes his own it was tge first non processed food he ever eat.

This week he's making lentil and fennel soup but I'm giving it a miss.

Xxxxxx

Maybe they mean the recipe is Scottish rather than all the actual ingredients.

If we go back far enough nothing is Scottish because we all originated from the African continent

When he makes lentil soup he just buys a scottie brand soup pack,disolves around 4 ham stock cubes in a litre of water,adds 250 grams of dryer lentils and bungs it all in the slow cooker and leaves it for 5 hours. Xxxxx

Ok, so.......update.

He made lentil soup at school today

Half an onion

Half a carrot

A potato

4 spoons lentils

Water

Salt

Pepper

Ham stock

Cooked it and tasted it - said it was awful

Now, I'm no expert here but I'm pretty sure it can't be done in an hour and a half from start to finish if you expect it to be tasty

This probably easier to get - princess, get down to your local butcher and have a chat. They will be able to sort one out for you no problem
