1
Rinse lentils
Colander

Rinse the lentils in a colander and pick out any small stones.

300 grams brown lentils
2
Prepare vegetables
Cutting Board
Chef’s knife

Dice the onion, carrots, and celery. Mince the garlic.

Keep fingers tucked and the knife blade angled away while chopping and mincing.

150 grams carrots
100 grams celery
12 grams garlic
3
Heat oil
Large pot with lid

Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a lidded soup pot with room for the broth, lentils and vegetables. Use at least 5-quart capacity at the base serving size, and a larger pot or divided batches when increasing servings.

30 milliliters olive oil
4
Soften vegetables
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

100 grams celery
5
Bloom aromatics and spices

Large pot with lid

Add the garlic, cumin, and oregano. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.

2 grams ground cumin
1 gram dried oregano
6
Add liquids and lentils
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Stir in the lentils, diced tomatoes with their juices, vegetable broth, and salt.

Simmer soup
Large pot with lid

Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Partly cover and simmer for 35 to 45 minutes, until the lentils are tender.

Keep the pot partly covered to reduce splattering and help prevent boilovers.

Use care when lifting the hot lid, as steam can burn.

8
Thicken soup
Wooden spoon
Large pot with lid

Mash some of the lentils against the side of the pot with a spoon to thicken the soup slightly.
