Directions Vegan Lentil Soup
Directions
-
Place lentils in a bowl, cover with cold water, and pick out the broken ones that swim to the top. Drain.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat and cook onion until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomato paste, parsley, carrot, celery, 1 teaspoon salt, and bay leaves. Cook and stir for 3 minutes.
Pour lentils and 8 cups water into the pot. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook partially covered until lentils are soft, 30 to 35 minutes. Stir in mustard and red wine vinegar. Puree soup with an immersion blender until mostly smooth but some chunks remain. Season with salt and pepper.
