Comment préparer

1
Warm 15 ml of the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery with the salt, and sauté for 7 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent and the carrots begin to soften.
2
Add the garlic and black pepper and sauté for 30 seconds, just until fragrant; do not let the garlic brown.
3
Stir in the rinsed lentils, vegetable broth, thyme, and bay leaf. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
4
Cover partially and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the lentils are tender and the carrots can be pierced easily with a fork.

5
Remove and discard the bay leaf. Stir in the remaining 15 ml olive oil and lemon juice, then taste and adjust the salt and pepper. If desired, mash a small portion against the side of the pot for a thicker texture.
6
Ladle the soup into warm bowls and serve immediately, while the broth is steaming and the lentils are tender.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

Brown lentils provide a substantial base while carrots bring natural sweetness. Sautéing the aromatics first builds depth, and lemon juice at the end keeps the hearty soup lively rather than heavy.

Conservation et réchauffage

Comment la conserver

Cool the soup promptly, refrigerate it in a covered container for up to 4 days, or freeze it for up to 3 months. Leave space in containers for expansion when freezing.

Comment la réchauffer

Reheat gently in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until steaming hot throughout. Add a splash of water or broth if the soup has thickened.
