+++ Wash the lentils thoroughly. In a 2 1/2-quart saucepan bring 6
cups of water to a boil. Add the lentils, bacon, leek or green
onion, carrot and celery. Simmer, partially covered, for 30 to 40
minutes. Meanwhile in a frypan, saute chopped onion in vegetable oil
until soft. Sprinkle flour over onion, and stir. Lower heat, stir
constantly, and cook until the flour turns a light brown. DO NOT
burn flour. Stir in 1/2 cup of hot lentil soup into the browned
flour; beat with a wire whisk until well-blended. Beat in vinegar.
Add contents of frypan to lentil pan and stir together. Cover and
simmer for 30 minutes or until lentils are soft.
Add the frankfurters and catsup. Cook to heat frankfurters through.
Season with salt and pepper and serve hot.
