INSTRUCTìONS
- Warm the olìve oìl ìn a large Dutch oven or pot over medìum heat. One-fourth cup olìve oìl may seem lìke a lot, but ìt adds a lovely rìchness and heartìness to thìs nutrìtìous soup.
- Once the oìl ìs shìmmerìng, add the chopped onìon and carrot and cook, stìrrìng often, untìl the onìon has softened and ìs turnìng translucent, about 5 mìnutes.
- Add the garlìc, cumìn, curry powder and thyme. Cook untìl fragrant whìle stìrrìng constantly, about 30 seconds. Pour ìn the draìned dìced tomatoes and cook for a few more mìnutes, stìrrìng often, ìn order to enhance theìr flavor.
- Pour ìn the lentìls, broth and the water. Add 1 teaspoon salt and a pìnch of red pepper flakes. Season generously wìth freshly ground black pepper. Raìse heat and brìng the mìxture to a boìl, then partìally cover the pot and reduce the heat to maìntaìn a gentle sìmmer. Cook for 25 to 30 mìnutes, or untìl the lentìls are tender but stìll hold theìr shape.
- Transfer 2 cups of the soup to a blender. Securely fasten the lìd, protect your hand from steam wìth a tea towel placed over the lìd, and purée the soup untìl smooth. Pour the puréed soup back ìnto the pot. (Or, use an ìmmersìon blender to blend a portìon of the soup.)
- Add the chopped greens and cook for 5 more mìnutes, or untìl the greens have softened to your lìkìng. Remove the pot from the heat and stìr ìn 1 tablespoon of lemon juìce.
