lol old guy up the street picked up (from kerbside) a packet of black lentils .. lol 7 years past the used by date and gave them to watso.
waste not, want not - so watso used them for a soup.
the soup sure could have been an OFF SOUP - as maybe watso did not use enough fluids in relation to the amount of lentils and the lentiils did not look like split lentils .. it has been mentioned that split lentils cookl a lot quicker .
anyway watso was not going to throw the soup out (which would have been an acceptable option) as he had made a good stock and also included a can of coconut milk and carrots .. so watso added extra water and milk , cooked it again - hit it with the blender - then put it through the strainer and ended up with something which is ok
