	1. Wash lentils and soak them overnight.

	2. Boil them in the water in which they have been soaked, adding the garlic, clove, coarsely minced parsley and the salt.
  
 |  
	3. Add the diced bacon and allow the mixture to simmer until both the lentils and bacon are cooked.
  
 |  
	4. Then add the potatoes, peeled and cut into very small dice, and cook for a further 20 minutes.
  
 |  
	5. If a thicker soup is required, brown some butter with a little flour and add to the soup just before serving.
