Ingredients
 

  • 4 olive oil
  • 1 medium carrot, finely chopped
  • 2 celery sticks, finely chopped
  • 1 large onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 50 g red lentils
  • 2 tbsp tomato purée
  • 700 ml boiling water
  • 10 g Gluten-Free chicken or vegetable stock cube
  • 100 g green lentils
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • juice of 2 large limes

To Serve

  • 3 tbsp chopped fresh coriander
  • 100 g natural thick Greek yoghurt
  • olive oil, to drizzle

Instructions
 

  • Heat the oil in a large pan, add the carrot, celery, onion and garlic and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Next, add the red lentils, tomato puree, boiling water and crumbled stock cube and bring to the boil.
  • Turn down the heat and simmer gently until all the vegetables and red lentils are well cooked - about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the green lentils in a saucepan and cover them with cold water. Bring to a boil, simmer until just cooked, not falling to pieces. Once cooked, refresh the lentils under cold water.
  • When the soup is cooked, transfer it in batches to a food processor or liquidiser and process until you have a nice smooth puree.
  • Return the soup to a clean pan. You may need to add a little boiling water if it is too thick. Check the seasoning, then add the lime juice and stir well.

To Serve

  • Place the cooked green lentils in 4 bowls. Top with the hot soup, a little fresh coriander and a blob of yoghurt swirled in at the last moment.
  • A little olive oil drizzled over is also a nice touch
