Add a photoWhat does a healthy cup of soup and Filipino longganisa (sausage) have in common? Nothing. But it doesn't mean they can't go together in your kitchen cooking.
For this recipe, I thought of adding some longganisa to my lentil soup just as a matter of experiement, and I'm glad I did. The soup was super delicious comforting (you know, as in longganisa comfort food).
This opens up tons of possibilities on what else can go with a warm and healthy lentil soup. Other than the crispy fried Parmesan cheese of course!
