Categories     Soup/Stew     Vegetable     Quick & Easy     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Healthy     Vegan

Yield 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 cups vegetable broth or 5 cups water
1 cup dried red lentils
2 cups chopped onions
2 cups chopped potatoes
8 garlic cloves, peeled and left whole
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Add the first 5 ingredients to a large pot; cover and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer 15-20 minutes or until the lentils and veggies are tender. Take pot from stove burner and set aside. In a small saucepan, add the oil; warm over low heat until the oil is hot but not smoking. Add in the cumin, turmeric, and salt; cook and stir constantly for for 2-3 minutes or until the cumin has released its fragrance (be careful not to scorch the spices). Set spice mixture aside for 1 minute to cool. Stir spice mixture into the lentil mixture; add cilantro, stir to combine. You can puree the soup, in batches, in a blender OR you can use an immersion blender and blend to desired texture (I like to leave it a little chunky). Add in lemon juice; stir to combine. Rewarm soup in soup pot; season if needed with salt/pepper.

This soup is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the creamy texture of the soup and they don't even realize that they are eating vegetables.

I made this soup in my slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. I just threw all of the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it cook on low for 8 hours. The soup was so flavorful and delicious.
