    Creamy Red Lentil Soup

    Ingredients:


    3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    1 onion, chopped
    1 carrot, diced
    1 celery stalk, chopped
    ½ teaspoon sea salt (or more to taste)
    Freshly ground black pepper
    1 small potato, diced
    2 garlic cloves, minced
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    Pinch cayenne pepper
    1 cup red lentils, rinsed
    4 cups vegetable broth
    1-2 cups water
    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    Freshly chopped parsley (for serving)

    Directions:


    1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan (over medium heat). Add the onion, carrot, celery, salt, and ground pepper. Cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally (until the vegetables are tender).
    2. Stir in potatoes, garlic, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute more. Add lentils, broth, and 1 cup water. Simmer for 30 minutes or until lentils and potatoes are tender.
    3. Remove from heat and puree in a blender until smooth. If soup is too thick, add 1 more cup water.
    4. Squeeze in lemon juice and season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Ladle soup into bowls and serve with a drizzle of olive oil and chopped fresh parsley.
