Watching you is a meditation in itself. The music, the way you chop your ingredients, your soothing voice and the fantastic end product.

Okay, I made this a few days ago in sunny Florida where we hit 86 degrees yesterday. I can't stop eating this! My 92 year old mom loves it too! I made some homemade flatbread with herbs from the garden to dunk in the soup. Guys, this is heaven. It just goes to show you that it does not have to be cold outside to appreciate a good soup. Many thanks. I love your channel!

[stephaniesealy]

I love it when I know I have all of the ingredients in the house! Watched this 30min ago, I'm now eating Lentil Soup with absolute confidence!

[marystestkitchen]

I'm loving all the basics you are putting out lately! You make what could be ordinary so beautifully EXTRAordinary!

[shitalkanitkar]

You've just made a daily staple of an indian kitchen ! If you soak the lentils for an hour it'll cut down the cooking time. Love your cooking . Stay yeung

[mangelwurzel]

I make this quite regularly, except I add celery, turmeric, paprika and cinnamon, in addition to the cumin, and cook without oil. It’s also great with sweet potato when I have them. So delicious!

I love the way Yeung Man teaches his recipes. His voice is soothing, instructs short and teaches without a bunch of "fluff" and talk up front. I've made several of Yeung Man Cooking recipes. They're all delicious, vegetarian and/or vegan and quickly made. God Bless you Yeung Man!

An immersion blender is a beautiful thing for finishing soup. Just a few buzzes is all it takes. 👍🏼 It’s upstanding!

[melvacrump]

Reading many of these comments, it's obvious that your videos aren't just delicious recipes, they're also very soothing and relaxing. You provide comfort in food and other ways and that's a really cool thing 👍

[mariak]

Your videos are so estetically pleasing! Your photo background matters! Well done! Good job!

Hi there, I am on the North Island of New Zealand and have just made this soup. I only had brown lentils and assure you my soup is absolutely delicious. Have subscribed to your channel and will soon try your lentil curry. Thanks for this great, quick and easy recipe❤❤

[sharonstakofsky-davis]

I’ve made many variations of lentil soup. Your soup was far and away the best I’ve ever made. I used vegetable broth rather than water, but the taste and texture was amazing. It’s pure perfection

I grew up in Lebanon and the version my Tayta (Grandmother in Arabic) made also included a really healthy pinch of Aleppo Pepper for some smoky subtle spicy notes. Occasionally, if it was the season, she might add mushrooms. Thanks/Shukran for sharing this very hearty bit of Lebanese soul food!

[dianasoto]

I love your voice! I'm enjoying watching and don't feel like I need to skip ahead to get the recipe. You are the ASMR of cooking 🙂 Thank you!!

[sojourner]

You do what so few channels do: show the prep process in detail using correct technique. This is easy to follow with no unnecessary fluff. This is an easy subscription.

This recipe is so simple I just need to buy the red lentils. I’m excited to make it this week.

[marygard]

I made this amazingly simple soup for my family, who could not stop raving about it. It's even better the next day, if any is left! Would be great with a good crusty loaf of bread. The flavor is mild enough for young children. Thank you Yeun!

[MalenaBurden]

You’re so professional and pleasant to watch your delicious, nutritious recipes! Gracias from Colombia!

[errgowego]

I’m new to your channel. I absolutely love how you show how easy it is to achieve these recipes. You’re so methodical with your prep and your calm demeanor makes whole process so relaxing. I feel confident to make your dishes.

[baldinamolino]

Well I had something else scheduled for tonight. But yes, it’s lentil soup for dinner! Easy and every ingredient is already in my kitchen. Thanks
