INGREDIENTS
1-2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
3 large carrots peeled and sliced
2 stalks celery chopped
1 medium yellow onion diced
4 cloves garlic minced
6 cups vegetable stock
1 1/2 cups red lentils
2 bay leafs
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Juice from 1 lemon (about 5 tbsps)
1 teaspoon lemon zest
Optional: spinach or kale
To top: parsley or cilantro
INSTRUCTIONS
1️⃣ Heat the oil in a large stock pot over medium heat then add the onion, celery and carrots and cook, stirring frequently until the vegetables are soft and the onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant.
2️⃣ Pour the vegetable stock over the vegetables, then add the red lentils, bay leaves, turmeric and cumin and stir well. Turn the heat up to medium-high to bring the soup to a boil then reduce the heat to medium-low to simmer. Cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes, until the lentils are soft.
3️⃣ Remove the lid and stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, salt and pepper.
4️⃣ Transfer 2 cups of soup to a blender and blend on high until smooth then pour it back into the soup and stir to combine. You can also an immersion blender to partially blend the soup to your desired consistency.
5️⃣ Add the spinach, if using, and cook to wilt for 2-3 minutes. Taste and add more salt and pepper as needed. Serve with fresh cracked black pepper, cilantro or parsley.
