👨‍🍳 조리법

1
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and chopped celery. Sauté until softened, about 7-10 minutes.
2
Add the minced garlic, cumin, and turmeric. Cook for another minute until fragrant.
3
Stir in the rinsed red lentils and the diced tomatoes. Pour in the hot vegetable broth. Bring to a boil.
4
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the lentils are very tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
5
Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste.
6
Stir in the fresh lemon juice. For a creamier texture, you can blend about half of the soup using an immersion blender, then return it to the pot.
💡 전문가 팁: Blending is optional; the soup is delicious as is.
7
Serve hot, garnished with fresh chopped parsley. A squeeze of extra lemon juice can be added at the table.
💡 전문가 팁: Serve with crusty bread for dipping.
