- Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onion, celery, and carrots until slightly tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds.

Cover and simmer until lentils are tender, stirring occasionally, 1 1/2 hours.

Serve with lemon wedges, 2 tablespoons parsley, and a sprinkle of freshly ground pepper.

LEMONY LENTIL CHARD SOUP
From Fit Yoga, February 2009. This was delicious and very flavorful. I used the zucchini, and all vegetable broth instead of water. Serve warm, not hot, to better enjoy the lemon.

Steps:
- Wash the chard and with a knife separate the leaves from the stems. Chop the stems and slice the leaves (but keep leaves and stems separate).

- Add the garlic, all the spices, give a good stir, and cook for a further 20-30 seconds.
- Add the lentils, the chopped stems and the broth (alternately, warm water will work too). Bring to the boil.
- Reduce to medium heat, cover with a lid and cook until the lentils are soft, it will take about 15-20 minutes.
- Once the lentils are done, blend part of the soup with an immersion blender (alternately, transfer part of the soup into a highspeed blender, but be careful, it's hot and in this case you might want to turn the heat off and wait 5 minutes until it cools down a bit).
- Add the Swiss chard leaves and half of the coriander, push them down with the back of a wooden spoon, and cook for about 3 minutes until the leaves are tender but still bright and green.
- Turn off the heat, taste and adjust the seaoning adding more salt and pepper according to your taste. You might want to adjust the consinstency too, feel free to add a bit of warm water if you wish to thin out the soup.
- Serve with extra chili flakes if you like, chopped coriander leaves and lemon juice (about a quarter of lemon per serving is fine, don't skip it!). Enjoy.
