Cook with sada roti flatbreads

This hearty soup is closer to a stew. It is rich with tomatoes and lentils, and made even more substantial by the addition of vermicelli or, if you prefer, rice. We use a ras el hanout spice mix, a name that translates as “top of the shop”, implying the finest spices available; blends vary, but are typically made up of cumin, coriander, cardamom, ginger and saffron. The fragrant spices infuse the soup with aroma, making this comforting bowl the perfect thing to come home to after a long day.
