Steps:
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add garlic and onion, cook for 2 minutes.
- Add celery and carrot. Cook for 7 - 10 minutes or until softened and the onion is sweet. Don't rush this step, it is key to the flavour base of the soup.
- Add all remaining ingredients except the lemon and salt. Stir.
- Increase heat and bring to simmer. Scoop scum on the surface off and discard (do this again during cooking if required). Place lid on and turn heat down to medium low. Simmer for 35 - 40 minutes or until lentils are soft.
- Remove bay leaves.
- Thicken Soup: Using a stick blender, do 2 or 3 quick whizzes to thicken the soup (see video below). Or transfer 2 cups to a blender, let it cool slightly, then hold lid with tea towel and blend then transfer back into pot.
- Add a touch of water if you want to adjust soup consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Grate over the zest of the lemon then add a squeeze of lemon juice just before serving. Garnish with parsley if desired and serve with warm crusty bread slathered liberally with butter!

Steps:
- Place the olive oil into a large 6-quart Dutch oven and set over medium heat.
- When hot, add the onion, carrot, celery(if using soy chorizo sausage, add now) and salt and sweat until the onions are translucent, approximately 6 to 7 minutes.
- Add the lentils, tomatoes, broth, coriander, cumin, pepper and cardamom if using, and stir to combine.
- Increase the heat to high and bring just to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook at a low simmer until lentils are tender, about 35 to 40 minutes.
- Using an immersion blender, puree to your preferred consistency(or put in batches into the blender and puree). Serve immediately. Enjoy!
- Note: One reviewer said when serving, to add 1 tbls. of vinegar to the soup. I haven't tried this yet, but you might want to.

Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
- Easy Slow Cooker Lentil Soup. This classic lentil soup recipe has deep flavor thanks to a mix of smoked paprika, cumin, and coriander. Adding a splash of red wine vinegar at the end of cooking also helps brighten it after it’s been simmering in the slow cooker for hours.
- Chicken Lentil Soup. To get this soup on the table even faster, reach for a rotisserie chicken instead of cooking the meat yourself. Shred the chicken and toss it right into the pot after puréeing some of the soup and let it simmer until just warmed through.
- Palestinian Red Lentil and Squash Soup with Za’atar Croutons. This tangy, aromatic butternut squash and red lentil soup is a fun way to jazz up a typical weeknight.
- Red Lentil Soup. While green lentils tend to hold together, red lentils have a way of falling apart when simmering, which adds plenty of extra comforting body to soup.
- Slow Cooker Sausage and Lentil Stew. Toss a few sausage links into the slow cooker with your lentils and you’ll wind up with an extra hearty and delicious dish.
- Red Lentil Sweet Potato Soup. This thick and creamy purée is pure richness. The starches from both the lentils and the sweet potatoes blend into a super smooth meal.
- Ethiopian-Style Spinach & Lentil Soup. This unique lentil soup is filled with just about every spice from your spice cabinet — cinnamon, cardamom, turmeric, coriander, and more.
- Lentil Soup with Lemon Yogurt Cream. While the yogurt cream for this recipe is technically optional, don’t sleep on it. The cream helps cool down a piping hot bowl of soup and adds brightness and contrast to each earthy spoonful.
- Fridge-Clearing Lentil Soup. You’ll get a whopping 10 to 12 servings out of this vegetable-packed soup. That’s hardly a problem if you’re feeding a smaller crowd, though.
- Pomegranate Lentil Soup. Stirring pomegranate juice into a pot of lentil soup might seem an odd thing to do but definitely give it a try. The sweet-tart flavor of the juice is a wonderful complement to the earthy lentils and fragrant warming spices.
