To start, you’ll need to gather the following ingredients:
– 1 cup green
– 1 onion, diced
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 carrots, diced
– 2 stalks celery, diced
– 4 cups vegetable broth
– 1 can diced tomatoes
– 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
– 1 tsp cumin
– 1 tsp smoked paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Olive oil for cooking
To begin, heat a large pot over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Once hot, add in the diced onion and cook until softened, stirring occasionally. Next, add in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Add in the diced carrots and celery and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once the vegetables have softened, add in the green lentils, vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a boil.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for 30-40 minutes or until the lentils are tender. If the soup becomes too thick, add more broth as needed.
When the soup is almost done, add in the corn kernels and let cook for an additional 5 minutes or until heated through.
Once the soup is finished cooking, use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender and puree until smooth (if desired). Serve immediately and enjoy!
