Healthy, hearty and full of flavour .... give this lentil soup recipe a go.
This soup will fill you with goodness without the need for anything else for hours! Traditionally a winter soup but absolutely suitable any time of year.
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the onion and sauté until translucent – 3-5 minutes.
Add the garlic, carrots and celery and sauté for 2-3 minutes.
Add the stock, lentils, bay leaf, thyme, salt and pepper.
Cook on medium-low heat until lentils are tender, 30 – 40 minutes.
Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and enjoy.
Lentil soup freezes well so I often make a double batch and freeze portions.
